The boom tilt and raise/lower switches on my Hardi are very small switches soldered onto a circuit board. I am sure the switches don’t directly drive the solenoids, and that there is more complicated circuitry in between the switch and the solenoid. That is why the approach you stated would not work out well for me.
I did think of one other approach that would work. It would be better for pull type sprayers than self propelled sprayers? Disconnect the solenoids at the solenoid plugs and completely abandon all parts of the factory system. Make your own box with toggle switches for manual control. I guess in your case you could even connect that into your factory joystick handles.
If the homemade system fails, just plug the solenoids back into the factory harness. |
