Wellllllllllll.............

I went to start my C-160.........beautiful...

Drove it out on the driveway ............beautiful...

Shut it off and went to cleaning my garage.

 

Hey!  I found another dash-dust shield like the one that melted in the fire!......beautiful ..

 

I installed it behind the gas tank......beautiful...

 

Back to cleaning the garage.......

 

Later putting things away in the garage before I go to work.

 

Went to start the C-160........nothing!!!

Not a click of solenoid.....nothing!!! 

I went over the wiring behind gas tank ....everything seems ok.

Removed full gas tank to get a better look.

Checked single fuse.....fuse good.

 

What the hell happened???  Does this m-fkn, G.D. POS wheel horse hate me???

 

I'm about to show it what a real fire is like!!!  🤬🤬🤬🤬

 

So its 211°F. outside, no working tow valve and 25ft of lifting rear end and pushing until I get it back in garage!!!!!!

 

Today I hate wheel horses......

Did you make sure that the PTO lever is not engaged? Also, check the pedal switch, and seat switch.

Seat switch was bypassed long ago.

Never engaged to, but I will check.

Clutch/brake safety switch worked before, but will bypass it soon!

 

I'm calmer.....but still hate this horse.

I feel your pain, but there is never a Wheel Horse electrical problem that can't be solved with a cool head, a good meter, and the proper wiring diagram. A tractor that was previously running but doesn't run later the same day is usually human error. Just my :twocents-twocents:

Make sure that your clutch pedal is actually making contact with the clutch kill switch.   Don't ask me how I know that could be the problem. 

 

Then check for corroded electrical connections, like I had last week after my WH sat for a while.  First try, it started OK.  But then the vibrations caused a poor connection.
