DANGER
• TURN KEY SWITCH TO OFF AND REMOVE KEY, PUT THE F&R SWITCH IN NEUTRAL,
AND DISCONNECT THE BATTERY CABLES AS SHOWN IN FIGURE 17-1, PAGE 17-2. FAIL-
URE TO DO THIS MAY CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO RUN OVER YOU, RESULTING IN SEVERE
INJURY OR DEATH!
Testing the Forward/Reverse Switch:
1. Refer to Power Circuit Testing - Test Procedure 6, Page 17-16.
2. Visually inspect rotor and contacts; be sure contacts are in good condition. If they are not, replace the
whole F&R switch. If severe arcing has occurred, check F&R anti-arcing limit switch for proper opera-
tion. See Test Procedure 3, Page 17-13, and F&R Limit Switches, below.
Removing the F&R switch:
1. Remove F&R handle (6) by removing screw (7) (Figure 17-14, Page 17-28).
2. Remove screws (8) and nuts (9) that mount the F&R switch to the rear body.
3. Pull the F&R switch away from rear body and out of the battery compartment for ease of service.
4. If wires must be disconnected from F&R switch, label them so they will be reconnected properly.
Servicing the F&R switch:
1. Keep the switch clean.
2. If the switch is hard to turn or sticks, a light spray of WD-40® may be applied to the contacts.
WARNING
• DO NOT GREASE CONTACTS. THIS COULD CAUSE THE F&R SWITCH TO MALFUNCTION OR
BURN.
Installing the F&R switch:
Install switch in reverse order of disassembly.
CAUTION
• BE SURE THE WIRES HAVE BEEN ROUTED SO THAT THE F&R ROTOR DOES NOT PULL ON
OTHER WIRES AS THE F&R HANDLE IS SHIFTED.

3. Reverse Half-Speed Limit Switch: Test Procedure 12, Page 17-20.
Removing the limit switches:
1. Remove all three limit switches from F&R switch by removing two screws (5), lock washers (4) and nuts
(3). Label each wire prior to disconnecting wire terminals from each switch.
