Breakers go by amps only. I only had 5 breakers when I received my truck. I had no luck finding them back then, so I used good old ATO fuses :-D. It actually works out good. As I went through systems one by one, I figure a fuse would blow immediately, where as a 'unknown' CB could be defective...
Back in the day when I was working on the FDT, I had made sectional pdf's from the TMs of items I needed to address, and the PDP was the first.

The pin through the nut is an indicator. On the other side is a similar pin that when the latch wraps around the strike, the pin blocks the latch from rotating. In simple terms, like a door latch on a modern car.
Other things to check. Remove the hydraulic line and pump fluid into a pail, in...
I rarely pump the cab all the way down. Once it's over center, I just let gravity bring it all the way down. It should self latch
I can say for a fact the cab will pivot forward if you slam on the brakes while moving.:rolleyes:
When you go to raise the cab, the initial pressure unlatches the safety and then the pressure raises the cab. When the cab comes down, the lack of pressure allows the safety latch out to catch the hook.
More than likely, the piston has frozen from water and and crap in the cylinder. Remove the...
That was one of the many repairs needed when I was putting the LVAD back together. It is actually the latch's lock. As pressure from the hydraulic builds up, it slides the rod out of the latch releasing the latch to open, the rod on the other side is a visual indicator to the latch being locked...
