Good To Know
Q: Will this switch work on a JCB 4CX-PC with a different serial number? A: The 701/80299 switch is the standard column shifter for the 3CXS-PC and 4CX-PC series, but serial number breaks can affect the connector style, so always verify the wiring match before ordering.
Q: What does the shift switch actually control? A: It sends a directional signal to the transmission solenoid, letting the operator select forward or reverse without using a floor lever, which speeds up shuttle cycles.
Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
