PTO safety switch

(quoted from post at 14:33:07 11/25/21) Wires that were soldered to pto safety switch came apart. I have two red wires and 2 whites. No markings on switch or wires. Does anyone know how I can figure out which wires go where on this switch. Thanks in advance

That may take using the wiring diagram and "ringing out" the wires and switch terminals to see which goes where. The other option is to buy a new switch which will have that plug in pigtail attached.

AGCOpubs will have the Operator and Service manuals. They will also have the parts book if you want to purchase one of those as well, rather than use the on-line parts book. There is a customer service phone number at the upper right of their home page, which you can call and ask if the wiring diagram is in the Operator's or Service manual, if you only want to buy one manual at this time. (MF put wiring diagrams in a number of older Operator's Manuals over the years, I'm not sure about yours.)

When I said "ringing out", I meant you need to find where each of the four wires goes to on the other end from the switch using a continuity tester of some type, or physically following each back to the other end. Then you need to use a continuity tester to figure out which terminal of the switch would go to which wire based on how the contacts switch interact when the plunger of the switch is depressed. The wiring diagram would help in this task and you can get the books electronically from AGCOpubs, very quickly. It looks like the switch number is: 0017373U91. You can see what your MF dealer says about getting one if you haven't checked. It shows up on the "REAR AXLE - PTO-COVER ASSEMBLY" page of the on-line parts book.
