Sounds like a gunked up front valve block to me.

Dave/ Heer, what type of o-ring material are you using for replacements?

As Craig it sounds like you have a problem with the front valve block.

If they’re not aerospace grade Viton coated then please rest assured, you will have problems down the line. Take it from someone with painful experience of 50+ valve block rebuilds over the last 6 years!

As Craig it sounds like you have a problem with the front valve block.
Specifically, shuttle valves in the front valve block... but if one is jammed, the other 3 will follow suit.

Plus, as another thought, a fluid flush and filter change will be needed after all this work...

Accumulator failure depends on which one (there are 4).
The two for each axle will post an error in the dash in a large bump which then goes away.
The pulsation damper makes the system whine if it fails.
