Just got this tractor with 3,000hrs. The glow plug indicator light is lit all the time unless I disconnect the timer control box under the dash. Does anyone have a wire diagram or any helpful info about how to repair this?

Turn signals and flashers also dont work. Although the lamps do light when I jump power into the relay sockets.

My tc33 started doing the same thing a few years ago. I replaced the glow plug timer relay to fix the problem.

Thanks Thclimber I narrowed the issue down to the original NGK glow plug timer.
You dont have a digital copy of the service or owners manual do you?

I had to replace my glow plug timer last fall and, in my case, a similar (much cheaper) P/N that supposedly cross-referenced did not perform properly. I tried to go with that at first, but ended up buying the expensive dealer part and that worked out. That's just my experience. I described this in detail here:

When I did mine I think I used a Kubota relay I got off of eBay. Works perfectly and was much cheaper than the New Holland part from the dealer.
