SAFETY INFORMATION
BEFORE YOU BEGIN WARNING

Do not exceed GVWR or GAWR including blade and ballast. The rating label is found on the driver-side vehicle door cornerpost. Wear safety goggles to protect your eyes from battery acid, gasoline, dirt and dust. Avoid touching hot surfaces such as the engine, radiator, hoses and exhaust pipes. Always have a fire extinguisher handy, rated BC for flammable liquids and electrical fires.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION WARNING

Gasoline is highly flammable and gasoline vapor is explosive. Never smoke while working on vehicle. Keep all open flames away from gasoline tank and lines. Wipe up any spilled gasoline immediately. Be careful when using gasoline. Do not use gasoline to clean parts. Store only in approved containers away from sources of heat or flame. If you suspect a hose leak, DO NOT use your hand to locate it. Use a piece of cardboard or wood. Always loosen plugs, fittings and valves slowly to bleed off any residual pressure.
WARNING
Remove blade assembly before placing vehicle on hoist. Park the vehicle on a level surface, place shift lever in PARK or NEUTRAL and set parking brake. Leave the snowplow mounted on the vehicle and lowered for most service procedures, unless told otherwise.
BATTERY SAFETY CAUTION

Batteries normally produce explosive gases which can cause personal injury. Therefore, do not allow flames, sparks or lit tobacco to come near the battery. When charging or working near a battery, always cover your face and protect your eyes, and also provide ventilation. Batteries contain sulfuric acid which burns skin, eyes and clothing. Disconnect the battery before removing or replacing any electrical components.
VENTILATION WARNING
Vehicle exhaust contains deadly carbon monoxide (CO) gas. Breathing this gas, even in low concentrations, could cause death. Never operate a vehicle in an enclosed area without venting exhaust to the outside. If you work on the vehicle or snowplow in a garage or other enclosed area, be sure to vent exhaust gas directly to the outside through a leakproof exhaust hose.
HYDRAULIC SAFETY WARNING

Hydraulic oil under pressure could cause skin injection injury. If you are injured by hydraulic oil, get medical attention immediately. Always inspect hydraulic components and hoses before using. Replace any damaged or worn parts immediately.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Wear only snug-fitting clothing while working on your vehicle or snowplow. Do not wear jewelry or a necktie, and secure long hair. Be especially careful near moving parts such as fan blades, pulleys and belts.

THEORY OF OPERATION
Snowplow Headlamps
The Isolation Module acts as an electrical hub, automatically directing vehicle power to the appropriate vehicle or snowplow lighting devices, while also supplying battery power to the snowplow control. The vehicle high and low beams enter and exit the Isolation Module through positions 3 (left side lighting) and position 4 (right side lighting). Park, turn, and DRL signals also enter through positions 3 and 4. The output of the vehicle dimmer switch is directed to the Isolation Module via the long and short plug-in harnesses. When the snowplow is not attached to the vehicle, the signal passes through the normally closed relay contacts to the vehicle headlamps. During this time, the Isolation Module is inactive, placing no current draw on the vehicle's electrical system. With the snowplow attached, the Isolation Module is still inactive until either of the two following conditions are met: the vehicle parking lights are turned on or the vehicle ignition switch is turned on. Turning on the vehicle parking lights activates a series of relays, automatically transferring the vehicle high and low beams to the snowplow while supplying battery power directly to the snowplow parking lights. All snowplow lighting exits the Isolation Module through position 2. Turning on the vehicle ignition switch energizes a snowplow control relay, supplying vehicle battery power directly to the control via the vehicle control harness. The vehicle ignition switch also supplies power to the vehicle turn signals. Activating the vehicle turn signals energizes turn signal relays, which supply vehicle battery power directly to the snowplow turn signals.
Snowplow Daytime Running Lamps

Because Daytime Running Lamps (DRLs) are controlled differently on some vehicles, two Isolation Modules have been developed. The standard Isolation Module transfers the DRL output from the vehicle headlamps to the snowplow lights when the vehicle ignition switch is on and the snowplow is attached. The Isolation Module designed for the 1999-20_ GMC All New Sierra and 1999-20_ Chevy Silverado senses the vehicle in the DRL mode. A series of relays energize, placing the snowplow headlamps in the DRL mode. This Isolation Module does not turn off the dedicated vehicle DRLs.

THEORY OF OPERATION
Snowplow Hydraulics
The snowplow hydraulic system performs four blade movements: RAISE, LOWER, ANGLE RIGHT, AND ANGLE LEFT. All four movements require the vehicle ignition (key) switch to be in the run or accessory position and the cab control to be turned on. Three hydraulic movements require energizing the electric motor, shifting solenoid cartridge valve(s) or activating check valves. The fourth function, LOWER, does not energize the motor but shifts a solenoid cartridge valve. Power to the three solenoid cartridge valves is supplied by the vehicle battery, via the Isolation Module and cab control. The three solenoid cartridge valves operate in various combinations, electrically activated by the cab control, to send hydraulic fluid to the snowplow lift and angle cylinders or back to the reservoir.

ANGLE LEFT ELECTRICAL

Blade Movement: Angle Left Control: Left System Response: 1) By moving control lever or pressing the control button, the circuit board within the cab control switches power to the electrical circuits.
2) Motor relay closes, current flows through the motor relay, activating the pump motor. +12V is applied to the coil of solenoid cartridge valves S2 & S3, shifting both spools.
3) Hydraulic oil from the pump flows through solenoid cartridge valves S3 & S2 and into the base end of the right cylinder causing it to extend.
4) Pressure within the hydraulic circuit causes the P/O check valve to open. 5) The retracting left cylinder pushes the hydraulic oil out of its base end, through the open P/O check valve and solenoid cartridge valve S3 and back to the reservoir.

Introduction
This guide consists of a series of tables, diagrams, flowcharts and other information. When used properly it helps the mechanic to identify and repair faulty system components. Fisher Engineering recommends using the Electrical Tester as a timesaving tool for electrical system diagnosis. When using this tester, refer to the supplied instruction manual. All malfunctions of the snowplow can be categorized as mechanical, electrical, or hydraulic. Mechanical issues are generally related to the blade or attachments and can usually be identified by visual inspection. However, electrical and hydraulic issues can be difficult to trace to the component level and that is the purpose of this troubleshooting guide.
How to Use the Troubleshooting Guide

When diagnosing the snowplow electrical and hydraulic systems, some conditions must be eliminated in order to develop valid tests. These conditions are listed before the tables or flowcharts and must be satisfied before proceeding. If the listed conditions are not met, the procedure can result in inaccurate results and wasted time. In many cases, satisfying the listed conditions alone solves the problem. 1. Go to the General Diagnostic Table and satisfy the nine listed conditions. These conditions must be met before proceeding into the table or to any subsequent test. 2. Locate the condition in the table which best describes the problem and check possible causes and actions in the order listed. 3. Proceed to a service procedure, another condition, or a specific test as directed. All tests except the Hydraulic System Test use a
flowchart format. To use these flowcharts, first satisfy any listed conditions at the top of the page. Then begin at the upper left square and proceed as directed. 4. Follow along sequentially through the table and tests, referring to the hydraulic and electrical schematics in the Theory of Operation section and the component Identification and Location diagrams. Eventually the problem is identified at the component level.
Electrical Testing
Read and understand the Theory of Operation section. A simple 12V test light with a ground lead can be used for circuit testing. When directed to check for 12 volts (12V), ground the test lamp lead and probe the terminal. When asked to check for ground, attach the test lamp lead to +12V and probe the terminal. Note that 12V is a nominal value. If using a voltmeter, actual voltage will vary with the vehicle and the presence of loads in tested circuits. Continuity alone does not guarantee a good circuit. Poor connectors or damaged wires may have continuity but be unable to carry sufficient current.
Read and understand the Theory of Operation before attempting troubleshooting.

ANGLE AND LIFT CYLINDERS
Cylinder with Packing Nut

If equipped with this type of cylinder, periodically verify the lift or angle cylinder packing nuts have not loosened. If a packing nut is loose or leakage appears when activating the cylinder, tighten the packing nut 1/4turn after you feel the packing nut contact the packing. If adjustment fails to stop fluid loss, replacement of packing and/or rod (if the chromed surface is pitted) may be required.
CAUTION
Do not overtighten the packing nut. Overtightening affects the operation and life of the packing.
Low Friction Cylinder

If equipped with this type of lift or angle cylinder, the gland nut is torqued to 150-180 ft-lbs at the factory. Fluid leakage past the internal seal to the outside indicates a bad seal and/or that chromed rod is pitted. Replacement of the damaged parts is required.

RELIEF VALVE INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
Relief Valve Inspection

1. Remove the valve stem, ball, spacer and spring. 2. Look for broken or damaged parts, contamination or missing or damaged O-rings.
Adjustment
1. Adjust by tightening the relief valve stem until it bottoms out (until spring is fully compressed). 2. Back off valve stem (rotate counterclockwise) the number of turns indicated in the chart.

CAUTION
Be careful to strike stem squarely. You can bend stem if you do not strike it squarely. 3. If parts are in good condition, place ball on hard wood block, hold stem seat on ball and lightly strike top of stem with a hammer. This seats the ball and valve stem. 4. Apply a light coat of anti-seize or grease to stem threads. Lubricate O-rings with hydraulic fluid. Reassemble components into valve block.

PILOT-OPERATED (POPPET STYLE) CHECK VALVE INSPECTION
1. Strike boss plugs squarely with a hammer to facilitate removal. 2. Remove O-ring boss plug, spring and poppet. 3. Remove O-ring boss plug, spring and spool with O-ring. Use long/ slender needle-nosed pliers to remove spool. 4. Inspect springs, poppet, spool, O-rings and poppet seat for wear, damage or contamination. 5. If the valve manifold block has a steel poppet seat, use a strong pencil magnet to push and pull on the seat. If the seat moves at all, replace the valve block. 6. Re-oil O-rings, install spool fully into bore. Spool must insert smoothly. 7. Install poppet, springs and O-ring boss plugs. Torque O-ring boss plug to 60 in-lb.

INDIVIDUAL SOLENOID COIL TEST
SOLENOID CARTRIDGE VALVE INSPECTION
1. Remove both wires from coil terminals. 2. Attach an ohmmeter across the coil terminals. 3. A reading of approximately 7 ohms indicates the coil is good. A good coil draws approximately 1.5 amps.
1. Remove coils from the solenoid cartridge valves and remove cartridge valves from manifold. Look for visible contamination or damaged seals. Check for stuck spools with a plastic, aluminum, or soft brass probe by pushing on the spring-loaded internal spool from the end of the valve. The spool should move freely through its entire travel. NOTE: Using probe to move spool may shear contamination which was affecting spool movement. 2. Bench test the cartridge valve by installing a coil on the stem and applying 12V and ground. Watch through the side ports for internal spool travel. If the cartridge valve spool is stuck or its travel is restricted, replace the cartridge. If the cartridge valve is in good condition, clean it with parts cleaning solvent and dry with compressed air, being careful not to damage the seals. Check the spool travel again in case any internal contaminants were dislodged during cleaning. Re-oil the cartridge valve seals and o-rings and reinstall the
cartridge valve, torquing to 10 ft-lb. Install the coils and torque retaining nuts to 4 ft-lb. NOTE: If contamination is seen in more than one component, it can be reasonably assumed that the entire system is contaminated and in order to perform a proper repair, the entire hydraulic unit must be disassembled and cleaned. The hoses and cylinders must also be disassembled and cleaned. The source of the contamination must be located and repaired before reassembly.
