Do you have voltage to fwd & rev solenoids on the control? If no, you need to trace down an electrical problem. If it is a 2006 or newer, it has the operator presence module. Check the brake pressure switches and seat switch. If you have voltage, check trans pressures.

hi Logic, trans uses special fluid called "Hytrans" "Tractor Trans" Hy-Ken etc. it is a dual-purpose hydraulic and transmission fluid.
have you taken pressure readings of the transmission yet?

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
