Good Day,
I'm new to the forum but I've spent a good bit of time read past posts to help troubleshoot my issue on my CTL. I'm not 100% sure I'm checking the correct solenoid on my machine as most of the posts are for the older TL140, 150, series and my machine is a 2015 TL12 Standard Flow.
I had a leaky floating seal on the LH travel motor. Some friends helped me pull it and tear it down, installed a new OEM floating seal, and put it all back together. Got it back on the machine one night super late at like 1AM and was excited to see it work. Everything was torqued and ready for fire up and then I realized as I was in the cab that I had zero hydraulics. No pilot pressure like my Lever Lock Bar wasn't down. It was super late and all I did was check fuses and stare at it for like 10 mins scratching my head and then called it a night. The next day I did a bunch of forum research and that lead me to checking out the Lever Lock systems. I checked the Relay located in front of footwell. It clicks and is sending power. Mag Switch works on lap bar. I even have 12V at what I believe is the lever lock solenoid and the coil is magnetized when the bar is down and magnet goes away when the bar is raised up. I am not sure how strong the magnetism should be however. I'm not 100% sure I'm on the right solenoid as I'm only using the wiring diagram and color of wire to help determine if it is the correct solenoid. The one I'm testing is on left side of machine slight behind and below the LH control stick. There are two solenoids and I'm testing the one with the 19mm hex on top (it is the solenoid towards the rear on that sub valve block).
I'm starting to run out of things to test and my knowledge on this machine is limited to 2 years of ownership and some basic all around mechanic skills. I don't see how working on the travel motor could have related to this "new" problem but perhaps I'm missing something?
The machine is a 2015 standard flow cab model. No optional seat safety switch, No optional theft arrester system, No Ride Control Option and No Parking Break Option. Serial is 201201893. Pilot filter and primary Hydraulic suction filter were both changed in June 2023 (about 100 hours ago). I use the machine on my small farm so it doesn't see a ton of hours like if on a job site.
I'm hoping there is a smoking gun of something stupid that I'm not thinking of and I really appreciate your time and thoughts on this.
