Boss Snowplow -Failure after failure in The Back Drag Pro
What happens here
The reviewer delves into specific mechanical and electrical problems. He describes instances where the plow's controller fails to lift the plow, forcing him to exit the truck and manually intervene. He explains that this is due to a faulty module within the hydraulic unit, which the manufacturer states can be affected by salt causing cross-conductivity. He also demonstrates a time-consuming manual cycling process to temporarily resolve the issue.
Goal: Detail the electronic and hydraulic issues preventing proper plow operation
