Well folks I finally found the problem! There is a seal inside the hydraulic pump (back side) which was blown.
It is the one which wraps around the two shaft ends (if that makes any sense) and prevents the hydraulic oil from diverting from the inlet/outlet portion of the pump.

Did you end up repairing it yourself or dealer?
Any chance you cataloged the repairs with pictures?

I know this is an older post but I am having the exact same issue! I am going to pull apart my pump and look. JD doesn't show any break down or seals. Is there anything I should know before I start? Where did you get the seal?

I had similar symptoms; in my case, it was a suction hose.
A steel pipe carries oil from the case/ reservoir to the filters, and then (on my tractor) there is a short section of large diameter rubber hose to the hydraulic pumps.
It's buried under things and difficult to see.
And a very cheap fix.

I replaced the hose and the two O ring one at each end and it still happening....

If the pump is turning, and there is oil at the suction side, then oil must come out of the pressure side unless the pump is broken.


Seals are available from bearing suppliers.

Have you checked/cleaned hyd oil suction screen?
