[QUOTE="GoldenRetriever228, post: 37677, member: 4447"] Did you solve this problem? I am having the same problem with my 2003 228. I traced root of the problem to the proportional thumb rocker "switch" in the joystick. It is connected by to a small ribbon cable through conductive tape - I think the glue in the tape had dried out and rocker was not making contact as a result. I figured this out after I destroyed the rocker. Now I need a new one but my local CAT dealer can only replace the whole joystick for $800. I can jury-rig a toggle switch to make it work at a single speed, but I would like to be able to replace the rocker to be able to have proportional control. [/QUOTE]
