Hoping for some help here. I have a CAT 236b skid steer and the lights on the front and rear have stopped working. The rocker switches still glow when turned on but the lights will not come on. I have checked the fuse box and the fuses are good. Is there a relay or something else? I’ve looked for a schematic for the Lightning and haven’t been able to find one. Thanks!
Nope. If fuse to lamps is bad, the rockers won't glow when switched on. You've got yourself a case of 4 burned out lamps.
For the schematic of a 236b, it's the RENR6419-06 download in post #4 here... HeavyEquipmentForums
Check the wiring too......mice might have chewed something up
This would assume when you say it's a 236B it is just a plane 236B and not a 236B2 or 236B3. Always very important to give as much details as possible, full S/N is the best. That is unless the machine was stolen and the FBI was told the S/N by the guy you stole it from There appear to be at least 5 or 6 wiring schematics for the various 236B machines depending on the actual S/N if you take in to account the different versions of the 236B's like the 2 and 3. I'd start by opening up the non-working lights and check for voltage with switch on. Sometimes no one complains about failed lights till the last one quits working!
I’ll get the serial number and post it in a bit. I actually broke all of the lights off over time and decided to replace all 4 of them so that’s not the case. Also have checked voltage at the connectors and nothing. I took the console apart and checked the wiring at the rocker switches and it all good as well.
Okay so if you have power out of the rockers but none at the light end of wires seville009's pet mice might be the problem!
Get the electrical schematic and start to trace the wiring starting from the work light switch (which apparently has power if I understand you correctly) towards the lights themselves would appear to be the logical next step.
