The hub is plastic with a metal splined insert. I've soaked it in penetrant and driven it for many days with the nut loose. I have yet to figure out how to use a puller on it as it is plastic and odd shaped. The "skirt" that hides the tilt mechanism makes it impossible to hit the hub from...

Interesting - After trying to figure out what has gone wrong, I found the recirculating/fresh air slide would also not move. This time I found the cable housing clamp not attached at the slide end. I snapped it back in place and it works fine now. I suspect that is what is wrong with the vent...

Thank you very much - This confirms I was right in thinking I have to remove the steering wheel. The item you circled looks to me like it is the blend door and above that is the vent control, but in any case I need to remove the entire upper dash piece and that remains a problem. I really...

Thank you Smilingreen. Nice photos! I don't know how my cable would have been compromised as nothing has happened or changed recently. I tried to get to the actuator but so far haven't had success. I can get to the temp actuator but have not been able to get up to the directional actuator...

I have a problem with my 2021 RTV X1100C climate control selector. It is stuck on the upper vent mode. No matter how I turn the knob the air does not come out the defrost or floor vents. The knob does move, and it seems to have tension on it, but it certainly is not functioning. I removed...

Great idea. I have the Woodlands WC68 on my Kubota B7800 and it is amazing. As long as the RTV pto hp is similar it shoukd work fine.

My RTV X1100C was delivered new in December of 2021 and as of today it has 1049 hours and 7,080 miles. It is a workhorse!

According to what I know from studying the electric diagram, the glow plugs are directly wired to the starter switch - direct from switch to glow plug. The glow lamp is off that circuit with a 5amp fuse. I don't see a fuse or relay related to the glow plugs themselves. You should be able to...

This sounds like same problem I had with the driver door latch on my X1100C! The pull rod had a very small push-on clip that was supposed to keep the rod in place. I couldn't find in because it is so small. I ordered one to see what it looks like - no wonder it didn't last - it is tiny. I...

No - If I had more time I would have tried, but I needed to get back to plowing! Taking pictures inside the door panel would have been difficult as it is really tight in there. The parts diagram for the mechanism shows the parts.

I was out plowing this morning and when I went to go fuel up I found I could not open my door. I had to climbed out the passenger door. The thumb latch on the door worked fine, but the inner latch had become unconnected. I gave up plowing to work on this and indeed found the rod the connects...

Is there coolant in the reservoir? My two RTV's (2014 X900) and (2021 X1100C) both arrived with very slow coolant leaks that I initially saw via the level of coolant in the reservoir dropping slowly. I found two slow leaks where rubber hoses clamped on to steel pipes. Difficult to find and...

I am pleased to hear this - now I want one!

I can see that with the longer bed it is easy to have the load not forward enough. The machine can certainly handle that load, it is just seems a bit too far back. I am always amazed at how well engineered RTV's are. I've had two over 11 years and, while I am respectful of the machine, I have...

I put 11,000 miles and 1,700 hours on my 2014 X900 and never replaced the battery and had no starter problems. It always started well in winter when temps were below 10 degrees. I turned it off when I was going to be more than a minute at one spot. I checked my oil when hot - just gave it a...
