Hey folks
I am getting a low pressure trans oil alarm. After doing some research I came across a few possibilities.
-I checked the rubber coupling on the pump motor, it was fine.
-Cleaned the screen and trap all out, it was dirty but nothing that would stop it from running.
Now that I have put it all back together I ran it with the cover off for a minute to see if the alarm comes back. It did. So I checked and there is no oil in the trap. So I turned the spindle back on for a sec and felt the pump, but it feels like it is not running. So I think it could be the pump.
There is also a low pressure switch in there too, but I don't know exactly what that looks like but I am guessing it is the black ball with 2 wires coming out the top that is mounted on top.
Anyone have a pump go? Is it a common problem to be expected? Its a 2008 Vf4. Pretty sure we don't have warranty on it and I don't have the best relationship with the local Haas rep.
Any help would be much appreciated.
