I agree with Gerrald Farms. I've got a set of deep well socket from Harbor Freight that I modify just for things like that. The Crows Foot works too.

I agree. I will have to get a "throw away" set!

You might could cut a slot in one side of the socket for the wire to exit. Keep us posted on the status. Have a good week

Great idea!!

Honestly that's why I just stay with a basic tractor so much easier to fix in not as much stuff to deal with.

I don't like complicated things much either lol I like the powershift tractors, though, because of our mountains. The snychro tractors will come to a dead stop going up our hills if you try and change gears. I guess I am a little spoiled too! :)

it is poweshift 3-1-2-4 top to bottom. From what I have researched

I have a question. So we took apart the whole powershift. Changed all of the O-rings... We only changed the second powershift beacuse it was shifting into neutral but the rest of the sensor are in good condition. But the real problem is when we shift (powershift) it jumps and that is the problem. It does this in every gear 1-2-3-4.Also when you shift uo and down. And we can't figure it out why it doesn't work properly.

Did replacing the two pressure switches resolve your powershift problems with the transmission kicking out of gear?

Is there a similar switch for the forward /reverse. I seem to be having the same issue . Works great cold but after it heats up sometimes if I have to back up it won’t want to go forward again . Let the tracto cool down and works fine. I have a 5250 btw

We are having the same problem with our 5250. My mom was backing out of the quancet and only had reverse this winter. She shut it off and we had to pull it up to the light pole, because then it lost forward and reverse. What did you find the problem was?

Update: After using the 5250 all summer for haying, it is now winter and the tractor will not move again in forward or reverse. I guess it is just a summer time tractor. :(

We replaced all four switches with new. Powershift still doesnt work. It does not kick into neutral otherwise shifts O.K. The dealer suggest splitting the transmission but we feel it is electrical. Any suggestions?

Check all the wires going to and from the switches. Trace them all to their destinations. A bad spot in a wire was what was wrong with my tractor- not the switch. The wire was buried and I did not see the bad spot in it until I really dug into it. Good luck 👍

I bought a 5240 just over a year ago and have recently experienced the power shift not working in 2,3 or4. I'm thinking these switches. Did you know which one you had to change and if so, how did you find out other than looking at them?
