How about tracing grounds back to source and checking connections? And, did you apply some electrolube to the contact points to insure a good connection?

Almost sounds like a computer problem, but I'm not sure how much of a computer that model has. A flaky BCM on a car can do all sorts of things that don't make sense.

I will go over it again next week when I go pick it up.

That's what dealer thinks to but why would jiggling shifter make it start if computer issues

I may be wrong, but I don't think a shuttle shift has a gear position sensor on the HML shifter
so probably no connection to ECM.

I'll look when I get it back but dealer says it doesn't. Once it starts cranking it doesn't matter where that shifter is at.

Any update on your tractor's issue?

No I give up. We put a remote start switch in and no problem with it.

Glad you found a way around the problem. Not exactly the optimum choice, but better than not being able to use the tractor.

Yep I waited for more than a month for the dealer I bought it from to tell me he had computer back so he could work on it and got tired of waiting for them so I took it to a different dealer and they spent days trying to figure it out. So I was without a tractor for a total of almost 2 months. The main issue was it needed a crank sensor to get it out of limp mode. The start problem I've been getting around it for long time. My mistake was not getting it back to the dealer before warranty expired.
