    60G Swing Issue

    I know its a long shot, but just check your control valve that switches machine from JD control to CAT controls down by left foot /heel. Some how ours got switched about a 1/4 of the way between positions and half the functions worked, other half were super slow. Just to make sure someone or...

    JD 50D JAO275246

    Thanks for the breakdowns, I wonder if the X13 wires go behind that panel and to the K2 relay. That would explain why it was dying out last yr when AC was on when it was hot out. I unplugged compressor so guys wouldn't run it and it was fine after that.

    JD 50D JAO275246

    I check that it was moving, but never tested resistance when its not starting. The switch will make engine stall when u are working? I'd think it would just stop the hydraulic functions
