T2410 intermittent start

Well, it is never a bad idea to periodically do just this.
Also, you are describing an intermittent issue, which can be caused by a poor connection elsewhere, not supplying sufficient power to operate the module. Use a wire brush and really get after the cable ends as well as the surface it mates to.
Poor battery connections can and will be intermittant, in that they could be so poor as to not supply enough power to even activate your module, (or headlights, dash lights, glow plug, etc. but can and will "arc" or re-establish a connection, temporarily, when pressed to do so by a big demand (like a jumped starter solenoid). Do you know how to do that, SAFELY?
Do you have a digital voltmeter and some basic knowledge on how to use it?

This! I have 2007 2420 EHSS. Lots of safety/relay/modules. I have been dealing with a battery drain for a few years, had given up and added battery switch. Starting, after months of battery switch working fine, became problematic. I tried new battery. NADA. New key ignition switch. New relays. Brought a reputable mechanic over, we spent hours bypassing, jumping modules, jumping solenoid. etc. He is as strait as a strait edge, and he was cursing the complexity of the tractor electrical system. I have schematic. We never figured it out, and I called dealer, three months out. For ships and giggles, decided to replace primary positive cable from battery to starter. Voila!! It started with vigor, and has since replacement. I decided to see why I had lost a bunch of hair and peeled back the plactic insulalation/coating on the old wire. Sure as ship, there was a corroded area about one inch away from the positive battery clamp. Never have seen such a thing, but it was preventing full flow of juice to the starter. It has been six months now. I have a tender on battery, I still will pull the positive clamp off battery after use because of weird drain, but starting is no longer a mystery. Fires up instantly! My $.02.
