Thank you, I have done so.

I bought this last year to develop my driveway. I had both steering clutches replaced as well as a few bearings that need replacement. I have also replace many of the hoses, has a new starter/solenoid and battery. The backhoe is currently off, and has an issue, it barely moves. I put batteries back ...

I bought this last year to develop my driveway. I had both steering clutches replaced as well as a few bearings that need replacement. I have also replace many of the hoses. The backhoe is currently off, and has an issue, it barely moves. I put batteries back in it (after the winter) yesterday, and ...

No it wouldn't. A "solid click" would indicate NO power it making its way to the starter. I.e., it's not getting past the solenoid. Your starter uses a standard automotive Delco solenoid with a brass contact disk. When it gets pitted - it slams in and makes a "click" but makes no electrical contact...

I bought a starter/solenoid to put in, and have the old one disconnected but was not able to remove it due to access issues. I am wondering if I need to remove the fuel line to the fuel pump to get it out, and if so, how do I prevent it from draining diesel continuously....? Anyone that has done thi...

I was able to hot wire the start for a while, but more recently I only click a click.

Great, thank you!

So my 450B was starting fine, then one day nothing. I pulled the dash panel off and found a loose wire, which when connected to power resulted in it starting. So, I used that process to start it, and then disconnected the wire when it started. Then that process stopped working, so thinking it might ...

I am new to this site but would like some help if possible / just bought 450b that seems to be in good running condition with the exception of no steering / had many hydraulic leaks that i have now fixed but i had to add 5 gallons of fluid / it was turning to the right when i got it / also need to ...

I was going to ask a question about how to check the connectors to make sure I have them in the right sequence. I thought I should also go to confirm what pressure the connectors should open at. So I looked in the online pdf I have of the service manual, and find it includes information on the backh...

Thanks, I have a sight glass for the reservoir an I can see it is in the middle, so definitely not too low. The loader works fine. I would agree that it may be a coupler problem, so I will take those apart and review. While I don't think I did, does anyone know what the impact would be if I had the ...

I have one of the main connector hoses from the dozer to the backhoe split. During the repair the quick connector was damaged, and as it was old I could not get a match. So I had all four main connector hoses rebuilt with new quick connectors. it is all assembled but there is no power. The backhoe s...

I was going to try to get there tomorrow late afternoon, hoping to get some work done with it. My big concern is that I want to make sure the starter isn't staying engaged when it is starting. I know in a car I would hear it, but am not sure I would hear it on the 450B.

Sorry, we are still struggling to communicate here. The 450B was working properly until just recently: 1. Turn the key on 2. Press the starter button Then the non-starting problem came into existence. I arrived at the point where I am now, that there is a disconnected behind the dash. So a wiring di...
