Problem with JCB 3cx

[kristfin]

Hi
I have a 1996 3CX powershift
Y'day after digging a ditch I backed away, put in forward but no response. Put in back but no response. Turned it off and now it won't

start. Behaves like one is trying to start with it not in neutral
Do you know how I can diagnose this and get the old lady running again?

Possibly the welding holding the gear on the end of the forward/reverse clutch pack let go. Happened to my father's one a while back!

Where do I find the clutch pack?

Its probbaly the forward reverse lever switches burnt out, try a new f/r lever.

Sorry I did not read your post properly. More likely electrical as others have said

Try testing the battery voltage, followed by battery connections and earth strap connections to the frame.

Be forward reverse lever, one of the microswitches will have packed in
If your clever and patient from what I remember you can just change the actual switch.
Or you can buy another complete unit
