PTO won't engage

[jrashkosr]

I checked the PTO switch and seat safety switch, both work. What is another place to check?

 

[alexpops]

fuse? power to the switch? grounds?

Verify that your PTO selector is in either rear/both/front and not between settings,
Also you may need to lift and lower your 3 point to be able to run the pto.

Ok checked all that, late bloomer to the tractor world, LoL. Where is the PTO located exactly, thanks

 

[jrashkosr]

PTO solenoid located?

Try Parts - LS Tractor USA It should give you line drawings of the parts you're looking for, so you can narrow down the search. I think this is the page you want. Web Parts Catalog

What model of LS are we discussing. MT225S requires pto lever to be in position than an electronic pto switch engaged.

Thanks for your reply, I have a mt125

I believe if your not sitting in the seat the transmission has to be in neutral and the parking brake needs to be on in order for the PTO to work.

At least that’s the way it works on my XR4155 .

I think I remember those days

I bypassed a few safety switches, including the seat switch. I don't remember a parking brake switch, but mine is the gear model, so might be different? I can reach into the cab, without being in the cab, and turn on the PTO. Sounds kinda scary, but I make sure all is safe before doing this. Makes adjusting slip clutches much easier when I don't need to get on and off several times. Thats about the only time I do that.

Still havent relocated my switch to the side console yet either. So many projects, so little time.
