PTO Solenoid Valve Coil
The hydraulic syst em on the Groundsmaster 7200 and
7210 uses a solenoid valve coil on the front of the trans-
mission (Fig. 22). When the solenoid valve coil is ener-
gized, hydraulic flow is directed to operate the PTO
system.
The Standard Control Module (SCM) provides current to
the solenoid valve coil based on the position of several
inputs. The PTO LED on the SCM will be illuminated
when the solenoid valve coil is energized.
Testing
NOTE: The solenoid does not have to be removed from
the cartridge valve for testing.
1. Make sure ignition switch is in the OFF position. Un-
plug wire harness electrical connector from solenoid
valve coil.
NOTE: Prior to taking small resistance readings with a
digital multimeter, short the test leads together. The me-
ter will display a small resistance value (usually 0.5
ohms or less). This resistance is due to the internal re-
sistance of the meter and test leads. Subtract this value
from from the measured value of the component you are
testing.
2. Measure resistance between the two solenoid coil
connector terminals. Resistance of the solenoid coil
should be approximately 7.5 ohms.
3. Connect wire h arness connector to the solenoid coil.
4. If solenoid coil needs replacement, see PTO Sole-
noid Valve Coil in the Service and Repairs section of this
chapter.
