245 Magnum problems

Looking for any advice or direction. 245 magnum started throwing armrest, trans, engine and hitch controller offline. Started a few days ago and happens intermittently. Works just long enough to get to a field and think your good then bam just kidding. Tested terminators and believe their good checked fuses, relays and grounds. Service guys a week out and still trying to get some late wheat in. Thinking it must be the armrest controller at this point but I’m way over my skis. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

My experience has been it is either the the controller in the armrest or the wire harness coming out of the armrest. I have had to replace both at different times on different tractors.

There's a ground cable that terminates in the back between the right and left remote couplers, where the top link for 3 point attaches. We have fought it being dirty before and causing similar issues.

Check the solenoids behind the seat under the cover for corrosion they can be an issue cause they are in the heater and conditioning box
