HWH Hydraulic Solenoids

Has anyone had leakage from these solenoids where they attach to the unit? I had both solenoids controlling the front "hood" and one leveling jack solenoid replaced at the dealership a couple weeks ago. Now 2 of them are leaking. It seems as if the barrels need to be rotated, tightening them against an O-ring, but I can't see how to get any kind of wrench on them....too close together. Anyone know how to tighten them

Not sure about your specific valves. You should be able to remove magnetic coil and then tighten cartridge value.
