Electrical advice

Jsconst · 2020-08-14 23:01

Hello. I have a 2016 Case SR250. The other day it just stopped completely while in use. Long story short, there is power to crank the starter and to the seat sensor/switch but not really anything else. The instrument cluster fuse (10 Amp) blows as soon as I turn on the power but the starter will still crank it wont start though. I suspect there is some sort of electrical fuel control that's run through that fuse as well...? anyhow does anyone have any ideas where to start looking for shorts or problem spots before just starting to follow wires more randomly?

    These machines are to new for me, but there was a guy on u tube that had problems with the boom or bucket. It was the harness on the right hand side under the cab. Where the harness had a 90° bend somewhere around the rear of the engine, he found a bare wire. You might have a grounded wire there. Just a guess.
