Was working changing the fan belt today . and I think the alternator power post touched the frame .. I heard what I thought was a sizzle noise like snow on the hot muffler. Muffler was hot but no snow in site. Then i could smell burnt after belt change I tried to start tractor no power. Checked all the fuses in little box. Is there an inline fuse ??

There is also one or more fusible links, which is essentially, a plug with a wire in loop. On mine, those are near the starter. I don't know in your model specifically.

Glad to hear that you got it going. Thanks for the update.

I think it may just be two of them but don't quote me on that. If I recall correctly, one is for the ignition and handles everything that the ignition feeds. The other one is for the glow plug circuit.
