The fast hitch control is VERY different from your typical hydraulic remotes.

There is a feedback linkage that runs from the hitch, up along the left side of the platform, to a series of linkages on the left side of the steering pedestal.

When you move the lever to a position, the hitch starts moving. As the hitch moves, it pushes on the feedback linkage until it reaches the position indicated by the lever.

In a nutshell, the lever opens the valve and the feedback linkage closes it to make the hitch stop moving.

Check that linkage. It may be broken. It was broken on the 460 I looked at a couple weeks ago, and the hitch would not stop moving up or down unless you moved the lever to "meet" the hitch at the proper position.
