FAAAAKKKKK - I Think I might have fried the electrical system.....

Well...not the battery.
Changed that out to no avail.

George, the repair guy, came by and took a look at a few of the simple things (fuses) but couldn't get to exactly what he wanted. ECU relays....he thinks it's under the cab which can't be tilted up with the boom down.

I fear this is going to get stupidly expensive pretty soon.

Stay tuned as the saga continues....George is going to do some research and make some calls then come back.....

PS : Price is now 350 plus 140 for the new battery.

 

I'm in the wrong business.

 

what machine is it?

 

The broken one.

 

Sorry to hear man.

@Steeltoe I need a map please. Ill be down this weekend.
Can I crash on your couch and get in a good upper decker before I drive back north?

 

500 and I’ll come get it.




Where is Rob Linders at a time like this. Aren’t fork lifts and skid steers similar enough for him to tell us what is wrong with it?

 

I see what you did there.

 

Shut up.

 

Skidsteer = a big hydraulic pump, just counting down till its next leak/breakdown.

Forklift = 1/2 hydraulic pump, 1/2 electric drive just counting down till the next battery death/breakdown.

 

A Case TR320

 

That's fairly accurate.

 

Turned a brand new Lexus into a paper weight once.
Not fun.

sorry dude.

 

Well...small update. Replaced the crank relay and ecu relay along with the in-line ground fuse. Still dead.

After replacing the inline ground fuse, the current tester light was brighter and I know for fact that it was fried. We'll see what the next try is.

 

There are some perks to owning an older, simpler skidsteer.

 

Fixed
