T7245 pto problem

I have a t7245 ac which won’t start the pto using the hts. It will stop it ok but I have to reset the start stop switch to get it to restart. Code 007 comes up and the screen says ‘pto switch in the on position please switch on pto’. The automatic pto function is working fine.
Has anyone any ideas. Thanks

Sounds like the pto switch is stuck,either making a connection all the time or breaking the connection,have you checked the fender buttons? one may be stuck in.

Just checked the fender buttons and they seem to be ok. Does the pto switch need to be in the on position for the hts to be able to turn on the pto? If the pto switch was at fault would the fender buttons work? Thanks

Have you tried with the switch in the on position?
Yes the hts will switch it off but not on again. Then I get this screen

Have you a front pto on the tractor?
If so swap the plugs under the armrest to rule out the switch,looks like the error code you get if the switch isn’t in the on position,I’ll check mine tomorrow.

Ok thanks. I don’t have a front pto. But will see if I can get another switch to try

Mine will switch it on no problems with the tanker at headlands. It’s a tricky bugger to set up a new sequence with mind you.

Did you check your error code today?
 
Software issue, nothing wrong with the switch. I Don't know if this was ever addressed with later updates but as said once engaged on the switch the HTS system could only turn it off and not back on as the system sees that the switch is set to on. I'm sure it used to say switch is off if you tried to turn it on with the HTS and the PTO switch was off
Didn't get over involved as most applications you could use Auto PTO
