Hello everyone. I am new to this and was wanting to see if anyone could help me or has had similar issues as I have. My dad had a John Deere 310D 4x4 backhoe with open cab. He recently passed away but before he did he said that the parking brake was locked on it. It will not move in forward or reverse and I don't hear anything when I put it in drive or reverse. The backhoe has been setting out in the weather now for 3 plus years. It has rained in the fuse box throughout this whole time. I can go and crank it up and everything works on it except going into gear. I don't know where to even begin to fix it. I did notice where the gear changer is the switch is gone. The John Deere part number for that switch is AT162180. I just no that my dad kept saying that the parking brake was locked on it. Does anyone have any ideas on what to do or what to check? I am new to working on a backhoe but any help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks, Mark
