GC70K Cat no hydraulics

I have a 2013 Cat GC70K with no hydraulics. There is a solenoid on top of the hydraulic control valve that is getting power, but nothing happens on any of the 4 functions. There is usually a unload solenoid fuse that blows in this type of issue accompanied by no forward or reverse, but this has directional travel, just no hydraulics. There are 2 wires going into the solenoid, one has power, meaning the seat switch is delivering power and the fuse isnt popping. You have to remove control valve to replace solenoid, I am hoping someone has a better plan?

Just a guess but did you check the pressure before the control valve to see if the pump is building pressure. also most cats used a drive shaft to drive the pump make sure it is not striped could have bad relief valve l would check pressure before going that root

Fact of the week
Funerals in Spain typically occur within 24 to 48 hours of death, whereas in other European countries they wait one or more weeks. This rapid timeframe is a cultural norm grown from the past need to manage the warm climate without modern embalming.
