Check the wires on the solenoid valve and the fuse that is in the circuit. Then check the switch if necessary.

What series is your Toolcat?

Not sure what series, its a 06 i believe, cant find wiring diagram on web, dont know where solenoid is, would guess though that if active it would open lift and bucket circuit. Frustrated i cant find info to help me.

So, your saying that the joystick is locked, as if the safety arm is not lowered?

The first four digits of the serial number indicate the series. From an old post by SSdoxie, open it in a new tab to read it:

To fix it yourself you need the service manual that matches your serial number.

For help here, we need to know if it is a 5600 or a 5610 and what series.
