Being that these things are heavy on electrics, I would disconnect the battery for 5 minutes and reconnect. Maybe it it just got confused and it needs to be reset.

If that doesn't work, many things have caused these things to be dead. Everything from bad grounds, bad ECU connection, etc.

I hope it works for you. I have a service manual but it is for a G series. I have tried to help some people with electrical issues but man, there is a lot of electronics in these things.

Does anybody know where the cab ground actually is? Checked a diagram but I still can't find it.

Posting this to close it out. My multimeter quest led me to the switch which I ultimately decided wasn't working via a jump wire. $500 for a new switch later, and she's purring again. Thanks for the kick in the pills, Bobcat!

Thanks for the help Ruffdog and crew!
