CaseIH 2394 - clutch/inching pedal not working and

Like usual, starts right up, but when I press the clutch in I cannot put it into gear; the gear selector just grinds. Usually, when I depress the clutch the motor kind of makes a snort as the micro-switches make contact - now I'm getting nothing so I know it's not doing what it is supposed to.

I got down and checked to make sure the inching pedal was making contact with the switches (it was) and clicked them by hand a few times - still nothing.

I'm thinking bad switch, corroded wire, bad connection, or a bad solenoid. But - I'm not really sure where to start. Any advice? What do the microswitches energize when the inching pedal is depressed?

Last year during the spring we had one time where the motor started but the dash display was not lit (like the key was off). It acted the same way, and at that time I reached under the dash and wiggled a wire harness, and the dash and clutch worked again as normal. This time however the dash display is working fine.

Thanks in advance

I'm thinking bad contact/bad wire. It was fine today as well when I used it.

Thanks for the help.
