We have a powerscreen Powergrid 800. Trying to start machine with no luck. Light for oil and light for battery comes on when attempting to start. Checked oil and was over filled. Changed oil, now is at exact full level. Installed new battery. Light still come on showing a problem. The fault light was correct on the oil but now is fixed. How do you check or override the lights (sensors)

    as an electrician I would trace the wire from the fault light. the entire circuit has to be continuous in order to start, you can jump the starter from the control switch bypassing all the safety switches,but a word of caution make sure that whatever is preventing the machine from starting is not going to create a life threatening hazard. check, check ,check again but please use your brain and be safe
