There are several hydraulic valve solenoids on the
Groundsmaster 4000--D (Fig.30). Testing of these sole-
noids can be done with the solenoid on the hydraulic
valve.
Testing
1. Make sure engine is off. Disconnect wire harness
connector from the solenoid (Fig. 31).
NOTE: Prior to taking small resistance readings with a
digital multimeter, short the meter test leads together.
The meter will display a small resistance value (usually
0.5 ohms or less). This resistance is due to the internal
resistance of the meter and test leads. Subtract this val-
ue from from the measured value of the component you
are testing.
2. Measure resistance between the two (2) solenoid
connectorterminals.Theresistancefor allsolenoid coils
used on the Groundsmaster 4000--D should be approxi-
mately 8.7 ohms.
3. Install new solenoid if necessary. Torque solenoid
nut to 5 ft--lb (6.7 N--m). Over --tightening may damage
the solenoid or cause the cartridge valve to malfunction.
4. Whentesting iscomplete,connectwireharness con-
nector to the solenoid.
