I've got a 555D that won't operate in forward or reverse. It started as an intermittent problem and I could normally get it into gear by moving the loader bucket. Then it finally quit. Anyone had similar problems? Any ideas? Thanks
Filter? Oil level? Bent linkages? need more info.
I haven't looked at the filter. It doesn't appear to be leaking but I didn't take it off to see if there was any contamination. The oil level is full. I haven't check the linkages. Because the problem was off and on and could be corrected by wiggling the control lever for the bucket I thought it might be an electrical issue with the clutch disconnect switch. I tried to bypass the switch and still couldn't get it into gear. The Ford service manual has you check all the electrical connections first so thats where I started. I didn't have time to get through all the troubleshooting but I was hoping someone might know if this is a common problem.
so did you ever have any luck with your problem, as I am now having the same with my 555
it may be the trans shiftter control i seen them go bad and cause that problem
ill look in that direction... thank you. The stalling only happens when I run the loader end, I can hoe all day with no problems
