P253BPTO Sense Circuit Range/Performance
The PTO sense circuit is electrically intact, but the engagement feedback does not match the command. The ECM requests engage and sees no engaged feedback (or vice versa) within the expected time window — drive-line slip, sticky clutch, or a mis-adjusted limit switch.
