    Cat 730C

    Cat 730C drives a short distance then stops moving, cleaned the modulating valves and changed oil and filter already.

    I checked and there isn't any levers but I did I fact locate two manual bypass switches that overrides the parking brake and drives the machines. Upon using said switches the machine still behaved in the same manner

    Does the pwm solenoid valve have two coils to select for forward and reverse?

    I tried the case drain for both motors as you suggested, both sides for a period of 1 minute were dripping every few seconds

    I pulled the codes off the display but it appears that they cleared the fault codes as all I have is the active code for the disconnected screed

    They haven't sent anything yet so I'm not sure what's their policy, but they did plug in and said pressures are good for both sides, they did noticed a speed sensor code but changing it made no difference

    Well I'm still awaiting that service charge. Seeing that they didn't get the machine going, I'm assuming thats why they didn't send over any bills

    I don't have a scan tool available atm so fault codes I can't see. I've had caterpillar technicians take a look at it but they themselves have no clue as to what could be the issue, they suggested that it may be the propel motor. The hours are 4168.1 and serial number CATAP105VFAC00999

    The left track is much slower than the right track, the machine is currently floating and even with the override switch, the right track is much faster.
