D5G
Serial Number 5XK33044
Model Number 3046
Arrangement Number 1745998
2009 the cab was removed to fix the heater and all test port lines were removed and plugged at the source.
August 2011
Operator noticed oil leaked out on the ground. Stopped the machine and checked it over to find a hose under the cab was leaking. 2 pails of hydraulic oil was added to get the machine to move from the work area to a place where repairs could be made. That night someone on nightshift tried using the machine but never told anyone. The dayshift operator found the wire to the reset fuse had arched off and other little signs that someone tried to use the machine.
The D5G was then loaded on a low bed using a big front end loader and returned to the shop. It sat until December 2011 when the staff decided to work on it. The cab was removed and 4 hoses were removed for replacement. These 4 medium size hoses run from the hydraulic pumps up to the filters and back. A week later the hoses arrive but the employee who removed them didn’t mark where they came from and is no longer employed with the company. It was a group discussion on how the hoses should be hooked up and the cab was reinstalled. The machine was test ran with the blade and winch working but no forwards or backwards movement. The hoses were changed around with the cab lifted. The cab is now block up in the air so work can be completed on this machine. Another test run and still no forward or backwards movement. The crew is stumped and don’t know what to do.
Correct routing of the 4 hoses???
Is the hydraulic pump burnt???
Is there and air lock in the system???
The joystick controller acts dead so is the computer fired because of the wire to the reset burnt off???? But the gear shift indictor on the dash still works when shifting on the joystick.
Did someone boost the 12 volt cat with 24 volts???
