Hello,
I own a JD 3420 series Telehandler, and after replacing the joystick a couple of times, once under warranty, and once out of pocket, I figured out a way to fix it myself....
Now the part I'm fixing is in relation to the cradle switch, or operator's presense switch that's activated by the lever on the side of the joystick.
I've made this repair a few times to my own 20 series, and to two of my neighbors units, and I'm getting pretty good at it.
What I'm wondering is if there would be any interest in me selling my services to others who don't want to spend $1700 on a new or reman joystick for the JD tractors.
I'm thinking a repair in the neighborhood of $300 would be fair? Just putting this idea out there, don't know if this was a widespread problem or not.
What do you all think?
