My COFLE joystick jammed in 2018 on Case JX 85, a 15 years old tractor with 150 hours.
I took it apart, loaded it with grease and reinstalled. This week, It jammed and fixed itself half a dozen times. Yesterday it jammed permanently.
I took it apart and removed the handle and the swivel and reinstalled the rest. Now I use it by prying the white plastic part of the cables with a big nail and reverse by pushing on the white plastic parts.
I will make, and bolt 2 levers, to the 3 inch X 3 inches black metal box containing the joystick. I will be very happy, I even prefer to use two levers, like in the old days.
The lever to up and down the bucket will move forward and back. To empty the bucket, the second lever will move left and right, just like the levels of my backhoe.
Has anyone considered this ?? I can not see where the cables are getting stuck in the joystick metal housing, there is no broken nor bent part.
