    John Deere Power Reverser won't Start

    I want to thank everybody for your help with this problem! I found the switch. Unplugged it. And sprayed WD 40 on it. It seems to work fine now. I have had this problem in the past. And it only seems to happen on cold damp days so maybe this is the ticket! Thanks again everybody!
