Toyota 8FGU30:
No hydraulic functions

This has little to no hydraulic functions, including steering. Filters were changed a week ago. We had a problem with the lift lower switch a week ago also. I don't think the filters failed that quickly. Can it be in the controller?

Steering has priority over all other hydraulic functions. As long as the engine is running you will have steering pressure waiting to be used.

The only thing that makes me
hesitate, is that valve is controlled by the hydraulic ECU. Are you saying the steering is always working and does not open electronically?

I have thought of that. I will take a pressure reading tomorrow.

Sounds like your pump is not functioning.
It should always have power steering as long as the engine is running.

What are the voltage readings for the solenoids on the control valve. I read 7volts. Anyone know where the power comes in to the hydraulic controller?

Fact of the week
The Michelin Guide with its star rating system originated in France in 1900. The guide was created as a marketing tool to encourage more car travel and consequently increase the demand for tyres. It initially contained maps, tire repair instructions, and lists of restaurants, hotels, and mechanics.
