I am new with a backhoe. This backhoe will start by pressing the starter button only once in a while . I usually have to start the tractor by connecting, or crossing the starter terminal with a screw driver. Do I need to replace the starter button? Help Thanks Dennis

You could take a look at the wiring and the connections first but, I think this is a fairly common problem...I have a long story about this very subject but I'll spare you...any way it is extremely worthwhile to repair it...it almost cost me my life...the switch is available at case of course.

I have a 580c and I have to tell you that it was the starter button on mine. Same problem you have, took me awhile to figure it out but finaly took the starter button apart and the contact was riveted and gotten loose. I took a hammer and punch and reset it and has fixed it for 4 years now. Good luck.

Could be a problem in the starter button, or the neutral safety switch, or the starter solenoid, or a loose connections - i.e. there are many things that can cause such a problem. Take a voltmeter and/or an ohmeter and start checking components and connections. Otherwise you'll probably be replacing parts for nothing.

Thanks for the help guys, I replaced the starter button, and the 60 amp breaker located on the block near the starter. I still have the same problem. Any more ideas. Thanks Dennis

I think you're wasting your time and money unless you take a systematic and logical approach to the problem. Take a voltmeter and trace the problem. You push the button but the starter solenoid does not engage, correct? Is there power on both contacts of the push-button when you hold it in? If yes, then the probem is beyond the button. If there is NO power to either contact, the problem is before the button. If it has power going in, but not out - then the button is bad. It's a simple system, but you have to follow the circuit and check it along the way. I'm not sure what order all the components are in, but - positve power comes from the battery, goes to ignition switch, the switch feeds the starter push button, the push button goes through the neutral-safety switch on the transmission top cover, and then goes to the starter solenoid.
Did you check the neutral safety switch?
