I just got a Case 430 in the yard a few weeks ago that has been working flawlessly for me. Went to move it yesterday and it starts up fine, but the (P) button to unlock the controls doesn't do anything.
Usually when I first sit in the machine (without turning the key) the control panel lights up, but this time it did not do that. With the machine running, me in the seat, and the lap bar down the lap bar light still flashes on the control panel, as if it thinks the lap bar is still up, or I am not in the seat.
I checked both the lap bar switch and the seat switch with an ohmmeter and they are operating correctly.
I checked the fuses in the fuse panel, and switched relays on the relay panel with no luck.
Any other ideas on where to look? Otherwise I will get the loader arms up in the air tomorrow and tilt the cab forward to start troubleshooting a little more.
Thanks for any help.
