Phatboy 565 #1 Posted April 18, 2016 Ok today my hour meter stopped working ,, all the other gauges work and the lights in them work also... On one side of the clock has a brown wire from the tach going to it,, and the other is a double pink wire going to it,, no the light isnt working either ,, so that tells me there isnt any power getting to it,, which group of wires is supposed to have the power from ignition to it ? The pink ?... It was working yesterday ,, just stopped today,,, i just dont know which wire is supposed to carry the power ,, now if you were sitting on the tractor the pole on the left has the brown wire and pole on the right has the double pink going to it,,, so there is my dellema ,, any help would save me some time trying to trace all the wires ,,, so thanks in advance for the help !!

Racinbob 11,938 #2 Posted April 18, 2016 (edited) Assuming your talking about your 520 the pink wire supplies + power to the gauges.but remember that electricity is color blind. Since your other gauges are working and the same wire powers them check the ground but I'd bet that the hour meter took a dump. It's also possible that your oil pressure switch is guilty. Check the connections. Edited April 18, 2016 by Racinbob 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
