Hi Phil-

Could be most anything but please let us know what tractor options you have - if any.
Any other info such as noises, how long, fluid levels of hydraulic, etc.

Edit: I looked around and realize that this tractor has manual steering and your variant has 4WD.

What were you doing when the steering acted up?

Do you have parts books or WSM?

What's in front of you?

If you have reasonable mechanical aptitude you have a date with a set of metric wrenches and sockets. Disassemble. Find broken part. Try to locate replacement broken part. Repair or replace. End of story.

If replace, hopefully you can find a replacement.

Hi Phil,
Once you get to the bottom of the issue post some pics if you can.
I guess the steering box is trashed.

Sector shaft broke on mine and it was a relatively cheap and easy fix at the time.

Just posting "it stopped working what's wrong with it" on the internet doesn't get you anywhere useful. Time to put away the cell phone and stop surfing youtube and put your pants on.
