    1845c loses drive after shutting off

    I thought it was strange too. I'll cut apart the old filter I kept before this last one that was cut (at case). I might go pick up the machine and pull the pump myself. I did try check all 4 of the side plugs where the valves are and nothing looked out of ordinary/no shavings. But maybe I can...

    1845c loses drive after shutting off

    I think it's in my best interest to have the dealer do a flush and they said they'd inspect drive motors before proceeding as well. Appreciate the input! Now it's just a matter of finding a reman tandem drive pump, case dealer can't find one in Canada. Hopefully I have some luck state side.

    1845c loses drive after shutting off

    Update: Charge pressure dropped right off, the new hydraulic filter was cut apart and metal shavings have been found. Looks like it'll need the tandem pump replaced. I'd like to replace the pump myself, but without a filter cart and a proper flush I'm wondering if it's better to have my...

    1845c loses drive after shutting off

    I can't thank you enough! I need to get a service manual like that. I will also have to get the proper gauges so I can service this properly. Once I have readings I'll post back, and hopefully eventually follow up with a solution.

    1845c loses drive after shutting off

    Watched that video and subscribed!! Thank you for sharing, can't wait to fix that leak. The loss of drive is on both sides. It goes from 100% to nothing, both control sticks can be moved and nothing happens at all. Brake pins both release, coupler spinning (as seen). I am unaware what the...

    1845c loses drive after shutting off

    I'll take a look into that! When I moved the lever it was ever so slightly as I didn't want to get launched into the bucket. Seems odd that when I do get drive back I get full movement equal on both sides. But I won't believe anything is good on this machine until I full inspect it myself. It's...

    1845c loses drive after shutting off

    Is the coupling inside the pump? I posted the youtube video above showing the universal joints spinning the input shaft of the pump no problem. You can see me function the right drive with no movement in that video. I would really like to be something simple like the coupling!

    1845c loses drive after shutting off

    Went back to the machine, filter is above the sight glass. Started it up, no movement. Shut off, checked hoses, connections, filter. No problems. Jumped in and started it again, still wouldn't move. Off and keyed on (without starting) to check the display panel without it running, then...

    1845c loses drive after shutting off

    I will be heading back to the machine in an hour or so, I'll have a good look at the inlet hose and filter. The hydraulic filter is located above the oil level I'm quite sure of that, but I'll verify soon. Appreciate all your help!

    1845c loses drive after shutting off

    It had good power, it was spinning the wheels right before I shut it down to talk to someone. Mind you this is pushing some snow on ice, and the machine was only 1/2- 3/4 throttle. I leveled our shop lot moving gravel last time I seriously used it and it didn't seem to have weak drive. It is...

    1845c loses drive after shutting off

    Thank you!! Eventually I'll get a schematic and learn this thing top to bottom. Still can't get movement back on the machine.

    1845c loses drive after shutting off

    Thanks for the welcoming! I'll be hanging around here lots.. didn't want to start out this way though. All the fluids have been changed and oil level is correct for hydraulics. I did adjust the tension on the wheel lock pins, I did that after it lost drive the first time thinking there was a...

    1845c loses drive after shutting off

    Just checked, it's spinning as it should. There are a couple of sensors on the side of that drive pump, when I got the machine they were unhooked. I hooked them up before, but see no difference in operation now or before when they were disconnected. (I've tried both ways now again).

    1845c loses drive after shutting off

    1993 1845c Everything functions great upon startup. I can work the machine as normal, as soon as I stop the machine/lift the safety bar up and try restart the machine I lose all power to the drive wheels. Behaves like it's in neutral, no load on the engine. Have full control of boom and tilt...
