1688 hydraulic problem

I'll be thrashing along and then I lose the ability to raise and lower the header and fold/unfold my unloading auger. I still have steering and the only way to regain control of the other functions is to idle down and re-start everything. We've replaced filters and checked solenoids but we think it may be a priority valve problem. Any ideas? Thanks

Hi

Replace the 3 wire engine oil pressure switch on the engine.

Amax,
So it isn't really a hydraulic problem, it's just killing the hydraulics because it's reading the oil pressure wrong?
Yep

Engine oil pressure sensor provides ground for relay that turns on electo/hydralic functions.
Sorry about spelling.Seen problem many times.Sometimes you may let the engine idle for a while and things will start working again.
