Goldnboy 1,116 #1 Posted Sunday at 02:50 PM Picked up a decent C161 auto yesterday at a local WH show.. any ideas why the motion control will stick in reverse and only way to disengage is to turn off the engine? It does has a hack wiring job that I will redo from scratch once this is resolved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DLF 54 #2 Posted Sunday at 03:20 PM (edited) My 520 would hang up in reverse when i got it, does you C-161 have a Eaton hydro. Found a notch worn in the cam and a worn cam plate that caused mine to hang up. I replace both on the 520-H. Only way to get mine out when hung up was hit the brake Lee1977 Edited Sunday at 03:23 PM by DLF Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goldnboy 1,116 #6 Posted 11 hours ago So I got the new cam plate but not sure what is left to do to remove it to install new one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Take out the upper 2 bolts that hold the trans to the frame and install the long bolts. Take out the remaining 2 original bolts out of the trans and roll the trans back. Replace cam and reinstall trans bolts. May have to unhook the parking brake lever spring. Edited 3 hours ago by squonk 1 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
