I'm having trouble with the range selector safety switch preventing starting of the tractor. 1972 model 3000 Ford. The switch isn't letting the engine crank.
I pulled off the plate with shifter and range selector. There was a lot of condensation dripping down. (tractor sits outside) The fluid - here's a picture.
I don't know anything about transmissions or fluids. Water probably isn't good, but maybe a few drops is okay? Does this look okay?
2nd question: Should I bypass the safety switch (aka "S" position of range selector) or replace it?
