L2900 dead in water

[wwscotch]

My L2900 lost power staring 2 weeks ago. got it in shed, lost forward/backward.
Changed hydro fluid/filter. Checked for leaks-NONE.
Any suggestions appreciated

Did you mean to write "lost power steering 2 weeks ago" then "lost forward and backwards movement"?

If so you have either a hydraulic pump issues or more likely a suction line issues that feeds the pumps.
Look for seeping leaks on the large suction line that feeds the pump.

That is what I tried to say.
Loader and 3pt seem to work ok. Played with it 15 min, only small steering movement, no F/B.

You have a GST tractor don't you?

You either have a bad pump section (power steering and GST control are on the same pump section and loader and three point are on another) or you have a bad regulator valve.

Get the WSM and it will walk you through testing it and fixing it.

Thank you Wolfman, I downloaded WSM and will look through for tests!
