   Might want to move this to the skid steer thread location.

   Case 435 with a Iveco Diesel 3-cylinder was running for a couple of hours. Had half tank of fuel. Turned engine off, returned after supper and it won't start. When you sit on the seat, the fuel gauge displays over half tank of fuel. When you turn key on to start, fuel gauge disappears, the screen goes blank, the engine cranks and doesn't smoke... it will not start. Checked fuses, 15-amp fuse showed heat damage so I cleaned it with contact cleaner and replaced the fuse. The symbol in the fuse box cover displays a padlock for that position. Thank you for any and all ideas to get this running again!

   Welcome to HEF @Sparky_1 I'm assuming you have mechanical loader controls? If so, you will need to take a look at your loader control valve - there you will find lock out solenoids mounted to the lift & crowd spools. These (one of them only will be at fault) have a habit of shorting out & causing fuses to blow. Be certain that ALL your fuses are OK, because when these solenoids short out - the fuse for ignition/fuel shut off usually blow constantly due to the dead short. The auxiliary spool at the control valve also has a switch mounted to it - this will not allow the engine to start while the aux pedal is depressed, spool must be in the neutral position - could be an issue also......

   First thing I'd do is check for voltage at the kill solenoid.
