Havent posted in awhile on this forum ,, but my 873 has took on a problem started about 6 months ago and has gotten worse .. about 5 months ago .. what it first did was I ran the machine for 5 hrs straight doing dirt work ,, moving .grading etc . as I stopped to move back it wouldn't move like the parking brakes was on , I could move a inch forward and back but not move ,, I applied the parking brake a few times and it was fine ,, did the rest of the dirt work and was done ,, now it seems as soon as I run the machine and it get hot a hour or so , with out no warning it will do it again ,, as I come to a complete stop it will happen , but now I trip the brake pedal and it doesn't release it ,, I have to stop and let the machine set ,, the last time it did it the other day I let it set a couple of hours and it still didn't let the machine move when I started it back up , so I let it set over night and went down before leaving for work , it started right up , but it didn't move until I applied the brake pedal one time on and off the machine moved fine , took it up and put it into the shed , now all lights light up on the Bics fine ,, none or blinking just full light up .. I have no warnings or blicking on the Bics display screen .. , do you think I need to replace the traction lock solenoid as it is letting the cross bar slide down and setting the parking brakes .. ive only used the machine about 3 times since this problem has happen . the machine is a two owner machine , 4130 hrs, has never been beat to hell .. Thanks for any replies .. 1 of U Jess
