Tach/Electrical Issue

[Lockport]

Ok, just got home but I'm seeing Black, red/black, what looks like red/Grey (unless that's dust on it but I cannot reach it, and another right rear rust just looks black from this angle and I really can't get to it. That's a nylon nut holding the relay up there and I'm sure I can get an angle wrench up there if need be, but at the moment the issue has repaired itself.

Can not make out wire colors in the photo, 4 wires at the Switched power relay are Black (grd), Red (battery), Red/white strip (switch input), Red/Blk stripe (out to dash & lights).

My CT235 acted similar to this about a year ago. It was an intermittent problem for a long time with same symptoms. After while of troubleshooting I was able to locate the problematic relay under the dash on the right hand side of the tractor near the fuse box. The relay was not under the hood, but was located under the ignition near the fuse box. On the electrical schematic diagram from the repair book the relay is labeled as the "switched power" relay. In other documentation including the repair book and on bobcat parts it is labeled as the "ignition" relay. Go to bobcat parts online to the Electrical System 2 Group which shows the problem relay as item 13, G: Ignition relay. I was unable to post the link.

Will look there as mine has begun acting up again. I am also unable to determine what exactly that 20A relay is on the left side under the dash above the flasher. The workshop manual for the CK35 I have doesn't even show a relay as being there.

This might help you with some locations.

That's great, if I could find it. That Ignition Relay, is that hidden up behind the shroud surrounding the gauges and accessible from the engine side or do I have to disassemble the dash to get to it?

Is it visible without removing anything from the cab above the fuse box? I can't see a relay there.

If I recall correctly, I don't believe it is visible without taking of the "Cover, Instrument Lower" shown on the bobcat parts site under Instrument Meter Cover Group.

Kioti electric and Bobcat electric are different. That's why the CK35 manual is no help. As far as I know everything else is the same.

How the heck do you get to it? If I take those two bolts off the lower shroud on the steering wheel side, and the two upper ones on the engine side, will the shroud lift up?
