    New FLU419 Owner, Electrical Woes

    Hi Fuzzy, Have you had in luck in tracking down the problem? I have gotten busy with other stuff, but I believe that I have a similar problem because may of my panel lights, and the gauges don't function. There are some (?? unexpected at least for me ??) relationships in how the components are...

    Flu419 front hydraulic system normal pressure?

    I think it is the 9350, but do yourself a favor and replace all three. They are not that expensive and a real pain to replace. The one you need to replace is the inner one so you have to pull them all off anyway. in the parts manual 1, pg 0177 0-4, It says the part number is 9365 I think that...

    Thanks Guy, That is the first good reason to keep it in place.The two reasons I want to get rid of it is first the wires are not on the schematic and wind up confusing me while I try to sort it out. Second the after thought way it was added on in my opinion results in wires running along places...

    So far every one seems in agreement that getting rid of that crap is a step forward. I don't plan to focus strictly on removing it, but while I am working my way through my electrical woes if I trace something back to the STE/ICE-R, I will disconnect and if not too difficult drag it back to the...

    I realize I may be stirring the pot, but I have no interest in getting the test box. Does anyone have any reason not to begin removing the STE/ICE-R related wires when I encounter them? I am starting with 21S and 21M which run from the starter to the big port in the cab.

    Correct, 87 is out when the relay is energized. 87a is out when the relay is not energized. Because the relay is energized it is sending the 24 volts that would normally go to the start button to the cold start set of circuits, the red line remains at 0. If I remove the light blue line then the...

    I finally got around to digging in and testing it a bit more, and did enough prep work so I can ask the question better and hopefully get better results. I took the 2 pages of wiring diagrams from the Student manual on the 24 VOLT STARTING SYSTEM S.E.E and color coded the wires to make it easy...

    That is odd if I run a hot wire to the other pair of wires it activates the starter. I will have to take a closer look at it and repeat the experiment, maybe I got my wires crossed. :)

    Does anyone know where to find the ambient temperature sensor / or have a better theory on why the starter relay is not energizing the ignition switch? (no it is not related to the clutch switch) I have been working my way through the wiring issues. Fortunately I have not found any rodent...

    On a lighter note, I was wondering if any of your 419s have honorable war wounds (rat attacks don't count). I thought initially that mine may have taken a 50 cal in the bucket, but on closer inspection I decided it was some other violent encounter.

    After market dust covers and grease zerks on Drag Link and Tie Rod ball joints.

    Thanks peakbagger, It looks like he has a lot of good parts, which makes it a good resource. The shipping does not look crazy expensive. He does not mention the 419, but like you said several of the parts look compatible. If anyone orders the dust cover, let me know if it works. The...

    Thank you Migginsbros. Happy Easter. Your pictures and the dimensions are very helpful. The third picture answers a question I had about which position to attach on the drivers side. Currently I am attached in the middle position, but I think changing that will not resolve my basic problem. The...

    Just to pile on, I got that spring through core parts https://corepartsmb.com it cost me $5.00 + shipping. just search on A4259930110 If the lube and spring don't do the trick, there is some adjustment on the hand throttle, The spring we are talking about is (6). The manual does not say...

    MigginsBros, Thank you. Your picture is worth 1000 words. It shows clearly what I had suspected. The lever for the throttle goes a lot further toward the back of the vehicle than mine does. I would bet a large sum that if you push the accelerator pedal all the way to the floor the spring never...

    I checked the accelerator pedal and it sticks wide open, and the hand throttle doesn't bring it back. I think am going to need to do more than just be able to pull it back when it sticks. I think I will still follow Pinsandpitons suggestion as an emergency remedy, but it would be too easy getit...

    Thanks for the tip, that seems like a good solution. Maybe some piano wire or something like that. Thin and strong, that's not going to impact normal function with the added advantage of being able to pull it back if need be in an emergency. I haven't tried to floor it with the pedal to see if...

    Accelerator Linkage Adjustment Has anyone had a problem with a runaway throttle on the SEE? Last year I manufactured a throttle connecting rod because mine was so badly bent that I was afraid it's strength was compromised after I straightened it back out. I found the hand throttle also badly...

    Hi Skywagon, To get some meaningful help you probably need to provide more details, I likely can't help but it would be the starting point for someone who might be able to. First off what do you mean when you say stuck in low range on the gear box shifter? Here is a diagram for the shift...

    The covers were on when I got it, but who knows. The dobbers certainly plugged up 2 of the 7 brake bleeder valves. I will check to make sure the air flows through. Different topic, is there any use for the dipper rod I replaced? Boat anchor comes to mind, but if it has some value I would...
