Massey ferguson 3060 diff lock stuck on

[Ricgil]

Hi I was using tractor today and diff lock was working fine then one of the times I engaged it it stuck on and won't disengage

Have you hit the brake pedal.

Usually jump out when in reverse gear.

 

[Ricgil]

Tried everything even took wire off solenoid to no avail I'm wondering if solenoid is stuck

 

[MF-ANDY]

Is it 4wd? If so are both diffs locked. Feed pipe/pipes are external so undo one and see if it is pressurised?

 

[Ricgil]

No it's only 2 wheel drive

 

[Ricgil]

Just got back to the tractor and the pipe has no pressure but diff still stuck on any advice would be much appreciated

 

[masseybreaker]

post a photo of the pipe you think is the diff lock you might be on the wrong one

 

[Ricgil]

I slackened the pipe just behind the oil switch

 

[Ricgil]

It was the pipe between the two oil switch

 

[Ricgil]

This pipe

 

[masseybreaker]

you are on the correct one its the 3rd one up
its not something i have come across before its pressure on then spring return. follow the pipe to under the left hand side of the hyd top incase the pipe is trapped somehow

 

[Ricgil]

Checked the pipe it all seems ok

 

[masseybreaker]

it could be that the diff has collapsed take the plate off that the oil filler is in it supports the spool block you can see the diff

 

[Ricgil]

I'll look in tomorrow to see what I can do

How will I know if dif has fell to pieces
