Bandit yoke lift issue

[Treemuel]

The yoke lift stopped working on my Bandit 150 yesterday. The hydraulic crush still works, so I'm guessing the issue is in the control valve and not the cylinder. When I pull the handle for the lift I don't see any sign of activation (no pulse in the hydraulic line). Looks like a new valve is $200-300. Any input on whether I should just buy one and swap it out or are there other things I should check/try?

Valves are usually not too complicated to overhaul. Lots of seals

I had a hydraulic supply house to work with. Their City Desk crew were. Very helpful with diagnosis as well as how-to help

Sometimes I’d DIY with a seal kit. If the counter tech showed me that it was a tough one I’d have them rebuild. Very quick turn around
