You are the man. I’m about to dig in. Have had no issues besides it getting stuck sometimes since new. My guess is shift motor has zero grease on it. Gonna put white lithium grease in there and clean the assembly. Also going to trickle charge the battery based on your advice. Will hopefully remember to update on how it goes!
Got a question would yours shift but sometimes won’t shift? I’ll be riding and have to slow down for it to shift i have to pretty much stay in lower rpm’s almost even stop
Do you know if there is a way to convert these 420s to a standard foot shift? I know on the 2000s ranchers and foremans you could but I can't find anything on the 420s
You have to change the cases sadly. So it would be a full engine tear down. Not worth it imo. I’m sure there’s more stuff to change as well gear wise in transmission. I regret not getting a foot shift big time. Don’t fix what’s not broken! More wires=More Problems😂
No. Turns out it was simply my battery. I have had one other “won’t shift” issue since this video and it was the shift motor getting stuck. I took the motor apart, put it back together and it’s been shifting like a champ ever since.

Yes, occasionally it would do that. Check your battery voltage. Charge it would be my first suggestion.

I don’t. Wish I could help.

Can you put a link to check the angle sensor I can’t find it
Any update? Did you have to replace any parts?
No. Turns out it was simply my battery.

did your gear light use to blink whenever u turned it on?
Yes. I don’t remember the sequences and what they mean, but I got shift motor issues.
My problem was low battery. I had to rev a bit to shift from R to neutral. Put a nrw Noco lithoum as the original was 10urs old.
They don’t like low batteries. I just had another issue and it was sticking brushes in the shift motor.
