Hi team,

After replacing a brake rod seal yesterday, the 3 point linkage no longer lowers. Raises fine, no noise etc. Just won t lower. Creeps down over night with implement attached. Checked the plastic strainer and return valves for debris but nothing found. Dual power works fine, front end loader works fine, power steering works fine. Is it an air lock or is the system self bleeding? Scratching my bald head..
 
It sounds like your lift spool is stuck in the raise position, which would have nothing to do with your
brake seal repair. If this is the problem, you'll need to remove the 3-point lift cover to free it up.
 
I agree with Bern that the control valve spool is probably stuck. I would check first that the ASC valve is pushed in all the way
before I did anything else.
If the control spool is stuck it might come free if you lift the arms up by hand a drop them a few times... The jarring may knock
it loose. Beyond that, pull the lift cover and have a look at it. You might also pull the round access cover by the pto lever and
get a whack at it... or at least look at the linkage to see if it's intact.
