I'm responding to the original poster even though I have posted several times with others about this. Hopefully, if someone has this same issue, they can go straight here and find out what I found. I have spent hours on this issue trying all kinds of stuff. It just did not make any sense to...

Good question. It's very slight forward and very slight backwards when it works okay. Otherwise it's slightly backwards or extremely backwards that does not work. There is no real detent to know when I hit neutral. That being said, the 660 should not know where the arms are without having...

Hi Vmax1! Did you ever figure this out? I am having the exact same problem as you described. Exactly the same!!!!
