  • / Simplicity Broadmoor Model 2691175 Transmission issue with reverse
I have a 5 year old Simplicity Broadmoor with 300 hours. The engine runs perfect, 22HP B&S Twin Cylinder. The issue is the transmission, it is a TuffTorq K57A, Model 7A646084550. The tractor started having issues with reverse. I replaced the drive belt and still no help. I pulled the rear axle and took off the fan and pulley to get the port for fluid. Drained the tranmission...fluid very dark and thin, Replaced with synthetic fluid. No metal on the magnet under the fill port cap. Reinstalled axle after purging the air from the transmission. Mowed half the yard and the transmission started to get sluggish in reverse again. Removed axle to make sure fluid level is still at 3/4 - 1" from top....ok. Any thoughts on the issue? Forward goes just fine.

Inspect & lube all linkages including Reverse Pedal. You can also call Tech Support during the week.
