Hello all, my gear (shuttle) Mahindra 1635 with 110 hours on it has started blowing the 10 amp fuse that powers the ECU, the instrument panel and the PTO. First, that is a weird combination to put on one circuit. Second, why did Mahindra decide to split the fuse boxes into at least 3 different locations? (1 above battery, 1 behind radiator, one behind the instrument cluster; are there more hiding somewhere I haven't found yet?) It took me forever to locate the fuse box with the blown fuse. The manual was next to useless in locating it.
It blows the fuse a few seconds after engaging the PTO and beginning mowing, usually about 30 feet of mowing before it blows the fuse and shuts the whole tractor down.
Anyone have an idea of what to look at on this tractor? I am used to a short causing things to blow immediately rather than 30 seconds later. I don't see any obvious wire damage around. I drove it about 300 yards to get to the mowing area without issue, only to have it blow the fuse after a short time of mowing.
I'll be calling the dealer on Monday to see what they can do since it is still under warranty. If it was something easy, I would just fix it myself since getting it to my dealer is a bit of a pain.
