Transmission acting up

Advise please.

I have been offered a 1997 JCB 530-70 Loadall. I am told that the gears select ok with exception of 4th gear.

Is this likely to be an expensive problem or I am going to be lucky.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thankyou. John Taylor

Seems just an electric problem. Think not to be very expensive.

Fact of the week
Bluetooth is named after the 10th-century Viking king, Harald Bluetooth, who united warring tribes in Denmark and Norway. In 1997, Jim Kardach from Intel gave the name to the technology because of its ability to unite different communication protocols, just as Harald united various tribes.
