PLEASE, NEED SOME HELP:
I purchased an F4350 from a dealer in Terrell, Texas (who no longer is a Branson dealer). I purchased because it spec'd out good, saw and drove one while I was in Texas on a work assignment. Liked it, bought it. Downside, I live near Albuquerque, NM, and not a dealer anywhere close for service. I purchased the tractor in 3/2002, have used alot, like the performance. Not a problem until recently when
I used the tractor for about an hour, turned off,
came a short while later, and you gussed it---the
engine won't start. Checked the battery-OK, checked the safety start features, including the
safety closure switches below the FORWARD/REVERSE
control lever. Plenty of power at the starter, plenty of power at the ignition switch. Can't locate the problem....the tractor has what looks like starter (power relays) and a "controller".
How can I check the relays and controller---well
don't really know what's going on. Would appreciate all the help I can get from the experts
and old timers, or young timers. NEED SOME HELP!!
It's Spring, and time when I need the tractor the most
Thanks!
