decvt79 5 #1 Posted August 5, 2022 My 270H with power lift and 48” mulching deck has an issue with the PTO and PTO light not working. I’ve been able to engage the PTO by connecting it directly to battery with a jumper. I’ve checked the fuses and the 4 relays and have a new PTO switch and all test OK. Any recommendations on what could be causing my electrical problem? Before it stopped working completely, it would work for about 45 mins then shut down. Sometimes it would renengage when I cycled the switch but no longer does that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jayzauto 89 #2 Posted August 5, 2022 I would check the resistance of the PTO Coil, as I've had to replace a few of those clutches. Also check the air gap on the clutch. They do wear and need peiodic adjustment. GLuck, Jay 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is a diagram showing just the pto wiring It does have the no mow in reverse system and I suspect that could be the problem Is there a way to test it? Also, the PTO wire leads do not show power when the switch is pulled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, the PTO wire leads do not show power when the switch is pulled so don’t suspect it is the PTO itself Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
