Check the cause
Check battery and charging system to ensure the alternator is outputting 13.5 to 14.5 volts, as low system voltage can trigger false electrical codes.
Inspect the wiring harness running from the loader joystick/selector switch down through the cab console for frayed wires, pinch points, or rodent damage.
Disconnect the selector switch connector and check for loose, bent, or corroded pins.
Use a digital multimeter to verify the switch is receiving reference voltage from the ECU, and test the switch for continuity when pressed/toggled to ensure internal contacts have not failed.
Repair steps
Disconnect Power
Disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent short circuits during repair.
Access the Switch
Carefully pry or unscrew the housing on the loader joystick handle or side console where the selector switch is mounted.
Remove the Switch
Disconnect the electrical pigtail from the back of the switch. If the switch is integrated into the joystick knob, you may need to loosen the set screws at the base of the knob and remove the entire upper joystick handle.
Install the New Part
Snap or thread the new selector switch (or joystick knob) into place.
Reconnect Wiring
Plug in the electrical connector. (Applying a small amount of dielectric grease to the connector pins is recommended to prevent future corrosion).
Reassemble and Test
Reassemble the joystick housing, reconnect the battery, and use a compatible diagnostic tool to clear the 0B.00.24 fault code. Test the loader functions to ensure proper operation.
