I'm still trying to get my PTO to run. The speed selector lever is stuck in neutral, and the trouble is not the linkage, as I've lubed it and can see it straining as it tries to rotate the shift shaft. Since I thought maybe it's stuck because the PTO clutch is not engaging, I did a little more diagnostics on the PTO valve. I verified that the PTO solenoid is getting +12v properly, and the resistance of the solenoid is 7 ohms which seems right (~25 watts). But I don't hear or feel any click from it when switched on or off. (I do hear the relay clicking on and off properly.) I can see that someone has done this previously judging from the mashed release button on the connector. See the photos below.
Is the PTO solenoid supposed to click when switched on and off?
Thanks as always!
