The last two times I went to use my T5C 1999, the steering wheel would not move. The temp was 20 to 25 degrees. It seems like the cylinder was frozen, I tried heating the cyl and I even tried placing a portable heater in front of the cyl and that did not help. I left the tractor sit and run for 15 minutes, still no help. I shut it off and did some other jobs and came back about a half hour later. The steering wheel would now move a little, I played with it a little and then it starting working OK. Now is the steering cylinder just to cold or maybe it is the valve at the bottom of the steering column? I did not heat the cylinder very much because of hurting the seals.
Anyone have any trouble like this?
