this is my first post, and its not a happy one! i have trolled around this forum aplenty though!
anyways, the tractor i picked up is a 2003 deere 4110 TLB (410 loader, 46 backhoe) has about 230 hours on it. the previous owner bought it new and used it to build his house, then when he got finished with his house, he bought some kind of home depot deere and the 4110 was sitting for almost 2 years before he decided to sell it to me. we got there and the battery was shot, so were both terminals, we got those working fine. Here is where the problems started. i believe i shorted the headlights while trying to hook up jumpers, they flashed extremely bright then died, funny thing is, both headlight bulbs WORK, i tested them numerous times, and also, the fuses are fine! (tried several different new ones to confirm). the turn signals work funny too, first position is hazards, second position is nothing, third position is hazards again and no headlights, any ideas? the battery ground is fine, dont know if there are any others though.
biggest "problem" may not even be a problem, which is the 410 loader, the loader joystick only has two ways it can go, up (which lifts and tilts the loader bucket back) and down (which uncurls it to level) then when the loader is on the ground it dumps :confused2: even when i try to float it, the loader keeps uncurling! the valve assembly for this tractor is 1400 bucks new, is it possible to rebuild? the deere dealers around here are clueless, one of them told me it was normal and said it was just the auto levelling
the other dealer kept pushing me to bring it in so they can take a look at it.....:mur:
anyone have any ideas as to what i can check? hydraulic fluid was going through all the quick connects, and all the features of the loader are functional, just not in the correct way
