You push the controls, and the machine either creeps or one side just doesn’t respond like the other. It’s a feeling you’re probably all too familiar with. How do you tackle it? Do you check pressures, look at the case drain, calibrate, inspect the valves, or dive into the electronics? It’s a good idea to sort this out before you start replacing those expensive parts.
