New LS Issues

[PaOkie]

Recently purchased a LS XU5065. Love the tractor and have put about 22 hours on it so far. Now we run into issues that seem to be electrical. We have begun getting an error code E03 but it just flashes on and off in an irregular fashion. My dealer has been great and came out to check on connections and seemed to cure problem but now not only is the error code back but today the radio was randomly turning on and off. Then the kicker, i was moving some dirt around and moving traveling when the tractor just stopped. It never lost power and never lost RPM but just stopped moving. Then about five seconds later it started moving forward again. Dealer thinks it is likely all electrical related but is in contact with LS service rep in NC and is going to come get tractor and go thru it with LS factory folks, but just wondering if anyone else has run into similar issues?

Nothing like that but my PTO would come on at times while driving. At the dealer now waiting for a new PTO safety switch to come in.

Again, nothing like that on my XR4046, Did turn the key off and pulled out of ignition. Tractor still ran and dash lights dimmed. Place key back in and cycled, and then shutdown normally. Need to have dealer check but have not had problem since, seemed like the internal key switch stuck.

PaOkie, I have the same tractor and recently I am having the same stop while moving issue you have had. I seem to think its electrical as well. No clutch slip, no noise the tractor just stops as if you put it in neutral or push the clutch in. Wait a few seconds and off it goes again. I see you had a ground issue with yours. Can you describe in more detail where your ground was disconnected or if there were any other issues regarding this problem.
