    Main Fuse Blown and Fuse Block Melted - Help!

    So an amazingly fortuitous thing happened. As noted in my original post, my tractor broke down at the end of my driveway. I was working on it yesterday evening to replace the 40 amp main fuse holder with an inline 40 amp resettable breaker switch. A man (Tom) who just retired as a mechanic from...

    TC29DA Main Fuse Blown and Fuse Block Melted - Help!

    If the glow plugs were drawing too much power is that more likely to be from the glow plug timer relay failing or a failed glow plug?

    TC29DA Main Fuse Blown and Fuse Block Melted - Help!

    And if that is what in fact happened, then that should mean there is no permanent short, just a temporary short that won't be repeated as long as those conditions do not happen again?

    TC29DA Main Fuse Blown and Fuse Block Melted - Help!

    TC29DA. The 40 amp main fuse blew and melted the fuse block. Slot B of the ignition connector (12V Input terminal) also melted. The wire and wire coating are OK, but the plastic surrounding that particular wire melted. I tested the ignition switch and it passed all of the tests in the repair...

    3 Point Hitch Not Raising All The Way

    Is the piston and O ring you speak of numbers 10 and 36 on this diagram? https://www.partspring.com/catalog/product/gallery/id/121898/image/31034/ Also, will I really have to remove the lift cover from the tractor to replace that O ring? Thanks.

    3 Point Hitch Not Raising All The Way

    Is there any further testing I should / can perform to confirm this is the problem? Also, can you help me identify where these are on a parts diagram or the service manual so I know what I need to get and where they are? And, which piston are you referring to? Thanks so much.

    3 Point Hitch Not Raising All The Way

    TC29DA. I've never had any problems with the 3 point hitch until now. It won't lift the brush hog off the ground. Sometimes it will lift the arms a little bit (I hear the pump working when it does), but then it just stops and doesn't raise the mower off the ground. Sometimes it won't lift the...

    Loader  FEL Bucket Strength Reduced (New Holland TC29DA with 14LA)

    I have a New Holland TC29DA with a 14LA loader with about 650 hours My FEL bucket suddenly got weak. The loader arms move up and down OK, but the bucket cylinders to extend/curl the bucket will only work when the bucket is no higher than hood height. If I raise the bucket up above the hood, the...

    TC29DA Overheating

    My TC29DA has 440 hours on it and has been running very hot for a little while now. After about a 1/2 hour, the temp gauge gets very close to the red. Here's what I've done so far: The radiator fins have been cleaned out - still too hot The radiator cap was leaking and has been replaced -...

    Rototiller size/power v. tractor size/power

    I have a New Holland TC29DA HST with 23.6 PTO HP. I am looking at a 60" KingKutter TG-60 tiller with a PTO HP range of 25-40 HP. The tractor is roughly 60" wide. The TG-48 (48") tiller has a HP range of 20-35 and can offset. I understand what can happen if the tractor is underpowered for the...

    Tractor Broke + Great Dealer = New Tractor

    Long post but good story (for me at least) I had a New Holland TC24D manual transmission with the 12LA loader. I went out to use it one day in May and the low range would not work. This was odd since it worked the last time I used the tractor. Tractor in the shop before Mother's Day. Find...

    Weighting Box Blade

    I have a landpride bb1554 (54"). It weighs 330lbs but seems too light since it either goes down too deep if I lower the hitch all the way or rises up if I try to keep the hitch higher for more the work I want to do (which is leveling a heavily furrowed old farm field). It seems to me if I can...

    Seeking Advice

    Rather than cross-post, I ask you to look at this thread where I ask a number of questions about traction (tires), loader capacity, and transmission preference. http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/showflat.php/Cat/0/Board/buynh/Number/668946/page/0/view/collapsed/sb/5/o//fpart/1 Thanks

    TC29 v. TC30???

    Long post.... I currently have a TC24. I am considering upgrading to a TC30 or TC29. (I'd rather not get into specifics at the moment but will follow-up when things are more certain - but I may be trading up with no depreciation). So, I am having trouble with the TC30 v. the TC29. I know...

    Installing a Lawn

    I know this is somewhat similar to another post but I have a more open ended question (and much less of a clue than the other poster) so I wanted to start a new thread. I want to install a lawn (nothing fancy) on about 3 acres of old farm field with lots of packed furrows and uneven ground...

    54" BB v. 60" BB???

    54\" BB v. 60\" BB??? I bought a New Holland TC24D (gear drive) and a 54" landpride box blade (amongst other things). I have not yet taken delivery and am wondering if maybe I should get a 60" box blade instead. I will use it to maintain a 350' gravel (mud now) driveway, as a counterweight...

    Chains  Towing Ability & Tow Chains

    I have a New Holland TC24D and a Dodge Ram 4x4 that weighs about 5000lbs. The tires on the Dodge are terrible off road and I will not be getting better tires anytime soon (unfortunately). I'm wondering if (when) I get the Ram stuck out in the muddy field (24 acres), how well will the 4x4 TC24...
