Yes, with all four pushrods disconnected, the V-levers should rotate fully and stop at each of the two limits if the microswitches inside the transmission are functioning properly.

The pushrods are off. They look ok, you say they are sprung - they both look solid - neither end moves. I have no access to a vice so must assume they are ok.

When I get a help (early here) for somebody to press the switch while I watch the XMSN I will test the travel.

Thanks

Simon
