I?ve got a 2040 with open center hydraulics that has a steering problem. Main pump is working fine good pressure but power steering won?t work. When you first start it up you can turn the wheel one time then it quits. Turn it off and start back same thing but no matter how long you let it sit there running it won?t work again. Column isn?t leaking on the outside anywhere but wonder if something on the other hydraulic might be leaking somewhere causing it to rob the oil to the power steering pump? Anyone ever had a similar problem with one of these? Don?t really know where to start looking. Pressure on main pump was turned up to over 3000 psi guessing because it had a loader. I took loader off and turned pressure back to 2100 psi so I know it?s working and getting enough oil but not sure if power steering pump is getting enough. Thanks for any help!
 
Yeah I know that. (Rear) pump is working fine it?s the front that
doesn?t seem to be getting enough oil or it?s wore out but odd
how it steers when you first start it then won?t until you turn it
off and start it back up. I was wondering what might rob front
pump of oil if that?s what is happening. 3 point and remotes
are working fine
