Well epoxied the fuel tank (and it actually didn't leak) and put everything back together. Though I thought I was taking great care to keep all connectors in place and not put any strain on the delicate wiring, when it was all together the engine would not crank. also noticed the PTO light would not come on. I could start it by jumping the solenoid on starter so I could move it.
Fiat has a history or poor electrical design and installation and the TN65 carrys on the tradition. We always said how a fiat 500 dollar wiring harness would burn up to save a 5 cent fuse.
The fuse block is a joke and the corrosion was so bad I couldn't believe it. I need to replace the dash panel anyway. so will probably upgrade the wiring system (read rewire the entire tractor)
Is there an actual wiring diagram I can get in the mean time to try and trouble shoot what circuit is messing me up? I am pretty sure is probably the shuttle interlock that keeps it from starting in gear.
Once I know what wires go where I will use my zebrastat to troubleshool it.
Thanks Dennis
