In your case I would say its the speed sensor but check this by looking at how accurate your dash reading is and does it fluctuate
If the PTO won't start when the tractor is on tick over but will start when the revs are increased then it need calibrating.
You could pull the speed sensor out to find some fillings stuck to the end of it .Quick wipe might fix your problem
Top job @njneer . Very handy.Found it eventually .
As previously mentioned there is a calibration to marry the engine speed read from the alternator and the rotation speed at the shaft to enable the ecu to identify pto slippage.

What revs does it idle at? needs to be around 8/900 rpm for the pto to kick in.ive got an mx120 that dose this with the sprayer on can take 5 go s to get it to work.
Had it on the west dual spreader today worked ok .
whats wrong with it cant trust it?
Hi, I no this is an old post but thought it may help someone in the future, I've just had the same problem with a MC 115. Luckily I have a MTX 135 so i changed the speed sensor over and away it went.Hi,
PTO will engage for a couple of seconds then stop on my McCormick MC135. I’ve been told it could be the speed sensor but was hoping there was some way to confirm this?
Thanks!
Have you got PTO problems @Ericrautenbach ?Hi, anyone possibly have the 135 service books electronically?
