Which outcome occurs when pilot valve contamination affects pressure?

💡 Explanation

Pilot valve contamination degrades the signal fidelity because spool valve overlap stiction causes unstable control. The *dither* effect is compromised, therefore the actuator chatters, rather than achieving smooth, precise positioning in response to pressure demands.
