It sounds almost like the valve or something inside it is either worn out or plugged up and would have to be taken out to be cleaned.
Or it could be the original Tel-A-Depth control valve may have been replaced with a Hydra-Touch one. Which is identical to ones used for the loader, as it has up, down and neutral, but nowhere in between. Just wondering if you have tried moving to lever down, than back into a midddle sort of neutral place, if so does the hitch still move or not.

If you cant see the valves now you can look at them by pulling the flat red plate under the dash off. Does the 3pt valve, which is the first one on the leftlook like the one here, the one with the "S" on it? or does it look like the two remote vavles to right of it? Note the square block on the left is the regulator/safety valve.
