1066 won't move and red light stays on

Willy P · Feb 21, 2009

My 1066 has been setting up for a few months and I cranked it up and went to move it and the little red light stays on and when I let out on the clutch it will not move,it was working fine when I parked it.I took the hyd filter out and tried it that way and it didn't help.The remotes worked but I didn't think to try the steering. Any help would be appreciated.

Make sure that the hyd. level is up to or above the full line , start the tractor and run the engine at around 2000-2200 and turn the steering wheel to the left and keep turning it this will help to bleed the air out and it should pick up prime . the sump check plug may be seeping or she maybe starting to suck some air thru the O/Ring between the speed transmission and the range transmission . Now i do not figure that you want to split her for and O/Ring unless it is really bad so you can add a few extra gallons to the hyd. sump this will not hurt a thing. This will help with a higher oil level. Also the MCV pump maybe getting a bit weak or there maybe a stuck flow control valve. Try what i have told ya and see if she picks up prime and let me know .

How cold was it? The valve body that controls the steering, brakes, and TA might be getting in need of an overhaul. Usually if you stomp the brakes repeatedly and move the steering along with the TA they will start working. If it was warm out then I'd say for sure it needs overhauled.

Thanks,I will try that and let you know. I got to thinking later about the ta dump valve because last year I did some adjusting on the clutch and dump valve. Thanks
