Howdy folks,
After just 21 hours, my tractor is stuck in 4wd.
It has started "clicking" in the front end when making a very sharp turn when it never did that before. Turns out while my 4wd button is in 2wd, the solonoid is not working, so I'm stuck in 4wd. Spoke with a very helpful service manager at my dealer and he walked me thru troubleshooting. First, he had me push my FEL into a dirt pile and see if the front wheels are pulling; they are. Then, checked all the wires and all are connected. Now to bring the tractor back in for a new solonoid to be installed.
Annoying as I'm 130 miles from my dealer, but at least this is a warrenty issue. Otherwise, the tractor has been great.
Anyone have a similar problem to this? If so, how did you fix it?
Thanks,
Mike
