BX diff lock destroyed

number two · May 22, 2009

I have to periodically remove the side cover and blow out the dust bunnies from the inside of the tower.I've been surprised how many times through the years this has fixed and/or improved performance.I'ts the overheating thing.A year is too long between cleanings;6-9 months seems to be safe.Good Luck

Anybody know anything about why my screen scrambles or goes blank? I'm thinking video card? I've never posted pictures here so I may be in for a treat. You need to shut down the computer and cross your fingers it works when it restarts.

It wouldn't surprise me if it was your monitor. Do you have an LCD(flat panel) or the old CRT? I had a Sony 19" that started to be a guessing game as to if it the ballast would fire the screen or not(took the shotgun to it

). If you have another computer I would try that monitor first. If that doesn't fix it and all your connections are tight, new video card. You can get them dirt cheap, but make sure you get one that will work with you computer. If you would like me to find one for you pm me your computer and you price range(anywhere from $20-500, I doubt you are a gamer though) and I will send you the link.

yea i broke mine too. it took aout the housing too. i tore mine out off the tractor and gave it to them to fix. I'm not sure but i think mine cost around 1900.00. and 4 trips to the dealer. i used mine hard too. but i bought it to use.

Used mine a lot, then bent shift fork, fixed under warranty. Dealer was real nice about it. Now don't use the thing unless I am stuck.

Hate the noise it makes disengaging sometimes. Sounds like an axle snapping.

Looks like I'm the next victim of the diff lock. It fully lock & will not dissengage?
Ext linkage looks good, must be the shift fork... did you get a picture of the damage rdsausintx?

No, I just hauled it in. The input shaft on the transaxle wouldn't move at all. I don't actually know if they disassembled it or just took a pipe wrench to it.
