Seems my tach,temp and headlights are on the same circuit. It keeps blowing. I have disconnected the headlight to isolate them and will try today. Any thougths?

We have the same problem on our 2007 DK45S.

When the dealer delivered the tractor, we tested the lights, and the fuse immediately blew. (Less than 1 hour on meter) We replaced the fuse, and turned on the lights again. Again the fuse immediately blew. I called the dealer, and he suggested I trace the headlight circuit and fix it myself. I have not been able to locate the problem yet. I just stay away from the headlight switch. Please let me know if you locate the problem.

Thanks..

There was absolutely no obvious sign of fraying anywhere on the wires. So I just disconnected the headlight harness at the closest junction to the head lights and everything was fine. Ran all morning in the woods working hard building skid roads. I still see no obvious wires that could remotely be shorting out. Go figure. Do what I did and start at the closest possible connection to the headlights and work your way back. Best of luck, G
