Case 580c shuttle issue

Good afternoon, yesterday while running my 580c my shuttle shift transmission started acting up. Forward works fine, neutral on the column is now also forward, and reverse isn’t moving almost like the brakes are on. Has anyone ever encountered anything like this and have any input before I look into a new shuttle transmission. I played with some of the wiring which is a mess and am hoping it may be the root of the problem. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Welcome to HEF @Brad_Alvord98

Unfortunately, the forward clutch pack is toasted due to a broken bellville washer/spring. This causes the pack to lock into forward with the broken bits of washer interlocking together, hence causing drive when in neutral & not driving anywhere in reverse. (fwd & rev engaged at same time)

The power shuttle needs to be removed & rebuilt.

Do you have any recommendations on a company to get a rebuilt one from?
