Since I have only combined corn with this machine I thought I best try out the other heads I have around. I put the 810 pickup head on because it is smaller than the 820 and tried everything out. Don't seem to have any flow to the hydraulic motor that powers the reel. I took the motor off and we plugged it into a tractor...runs forward and backward. Following the lines back I come to a solenoid that has a questionable ground. I will repair the ground in the AM but want to make sure that I am doing everything right. I have the reel speed rocker switch set to "manual" and have confirmed I have the hydro lines in the correct ports. When I start testing with the meter, should the solenoid have power to it's harness when the feeder housing toggle is engaged? Is there anything else I should check if it still does not work after I repair the wiring?
