3510 is blowing 15 amp fuse at Pto/Starter off location. Tractor runs fine, starts good, but I have to use the emergency stop to shut it off. Pto is not working. I'm certain I have a dead short somewhere because the working light and brake lights are on when the tractor is running. The fuse blows when I push the Pto switch at the steering column. Any ideas on where to start troubleshooting?

We had a recent problem with our 4525. Ours was killing the battery and the dash would go dead.

They looked and looked and looked. It was hard to find ... however, they traced it to on of the lights ... the one mounted on the rear wheel where you climb on. It was wired BACKWARD!. It came that way from the factory. This was causing a short even though the light worked. The wire harness was heating up and some wires deep in the harness had melted.

While trouble shooting ours, they got in a 6045 with "weird electrical problems" and decided to check the lights. There it was - the light was wired backward. Again, the wire harness needed replacing due to heat and melting.

Not sure yours is the same thing ... but worth a look.

They also said that there may also be a problem with the "hazard lights switch". It would be good to check that also.

On ours, they replaced the complete harness, the dash, all the switches, the alternator and a few other parts. They wanted to make sure they got it and anything it may have damaged.

The tractor is now at the dealer. I didn't feel confident tearing into the wiring harness to troubleshoot the problem. I will let ya'll know what they find. Hopefully this shop is honest and will do a good job:)

I am betting that your tractor is at J5 for the repairs, let me know how it went. I have never had to use them for warranty or service as of yet and wanted to get some input on the experience. Hope they find the problem quick for you.
