I have a 2003 110TLB with 2000 hrs., it's been a great, trouble free machine for 3 years. Several times a year I drop the backhoe and attach a brush hog. The problem started in June when I pulled the pto knob, it blew fuse #5 for the main ignition. A little experimenting revealed as long as I left the pto alone (with a new fuse) the machine seemed to run fine. I noticed the pto switch felt a bit warm and came here for some reading. I put the hoe back on and ordered a pto switch and fuel cutoff solenoid-the research here suggested one of these was the culprit. Replaced them both and used the machine til mid August when the fuse blew while pulling a stump. Now the machine will start and run, but if I use the hydraulics for more than 5 minutes the fuse blows, and pulling the pto switch kills it almost, but not quite, immediately. I think I've got a chafed wire somewhere but don't know where to look. Was hoping someone on the forum has had the same problem and can clue me in on where to look. Does someone have the wiring diagrams so I can use a meter to try and isolate which wire is the culprit ?.
