Changing out a neutral safety switch on a Ford 4610. If you’re turning the key and getting no voltage, you very likely may have a bad neutral safety switch, also called a safety start switch.
Thanks much for the helpful walk-through. My 4610 went “dead” last evening after a cooling system flushing. The high-low selector momentarily became stuck in neutral. After some fiddling it then moved normally, but the motor would not turn over. Day has broken. I am heading out into the 20 degree morning to apply what you so well communicated.
I have a 2910 with the same gear shift configuration. The neutral safety switch wires pop off also. Where the wires come up through the rubber grommet, do you have problems with oil leaking through the cover. If so, how have you fixed the issue. Thank you.
Did you ever figure out why the blue Ford tractor wasn't starting even Fter the neutral safety switch replacement? I know you said you suspect it being the connectors to the neutral safety switch being too loose but I didn't know if you actually went in and figured it out.
I fixed it after it popped off in the video and tried to squeeze the connectors together to make a tighter fit, but I’m sure one must have popped off again. I might put ring terminals on so I can screw them down.
