B2650 w/B2673 blade hydraulics question

I recently purchased a used B2673 blade in great condition, and then had my dealer install a LandPride 3rd function setup during a recent service on by B2650. I now know I should have taken the blade - when I went to hook it up I realized that the hydraulic quick connects were a different size (3/8 vs. 1/2).

So off to the TS this morning to pick up some couplers, and got everything hooked up. However when I went to use the third function buttons, the blade would only pivot right and VERY slowly return to center and no further when using the other button. I reversed the hookup and got it to pivot the other way with a slow return. I could also grab the blade and move it by hand.

So obviously something is wrong - I assume on my end. I have downloaded every instruction I can find for the blade and 3rd function. Should I have the A and B ports on the 3rd function hooked up to specific ends of the piston? Once I get this sorted I will definitely move the male and female couplers around for specific hookup. My dealer is an hour away or I would stop by.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

I can't imagine the problem being at the cylinder.
Sounds like a trip back to the shop is in order.

Thanks. I spoke with the dealer today and he is perplexed as well. Suggested that I pull the lines going from the couplers to the piston and make sure they are clear. The unit WAS sitting out for a while before I bought it - so maybe some obstruction.

If that doesn't fix it back it goes...

In case it helps anyone in the future, the issue was with a stuck coupling that wasn't connected correctly. I didn't mess with anything the dealer installed and ends up one of the connections was not fully connected - but would not easily pull off when I tugged on everything when double checking. We disconnected and reattached all couplers and its working like charm.
