6 pin, straight blade. $344 for factory, $200 for a Stork's aftermarket

Are the solenoid and controller actually done or simply hooked up incorrectly?

If you can not find the wiring diagrams here, just ask and someone will post them.

Let me get this right
the pump motor keeps running- you disconnect the controller and the motor stops running. connect back up the controller and the pump keeps running. so you hope its the solenoid!!!!! WOW

so tell me
you get a sharp pain in your foot, you take your shoe off the pain goes away.... put shoe on your foot hurts again. and you hope your hat is the problem!

Bad grounds can cause a multitude of issues. OP, you mentioned this in your first post. Did you check or clean them?

Ps
If your feet are cold put on a hat.

I've had that happen with a sharp pain in my foot only when my shoe was on. But it wasn't my shoe that was the problem. The problem was a thorn in my sock that only hurt when my shoe pressed against it.

So it wasnt your Hat!

He didn't specify whether or not he tried a new hat, so we still can't be 100% sure that it wouldn't have fixed the issue.

installed the new stick and it worked great for 1o minutes, now the pump whines and it wont lift or go side to side.

Thatsaneagle, this could be a few things. So, the process of elimination is a good way to find problems. I start with the cheap and easy first. Check grounds, check voltages, check connectors, check fluid level, etc. An easy way to check a ground is to run a temporary one. Hook a heavy jumper from the main ground on the plow to the neg post on the battery. You can use a booster cable. Then try the plow.
