Were you able to get your radio working?

Were you able to get your radio working?

I did not get it working yet couldn't find fuse. Need to trace wiring but used it for 30 inches of snow we just got. Haven't looked in detail but now i have a wire grounding somewhere as the wheel sensor code of 50-13 keeps coming and going.

In my manual is shows two radio power options. As trebdubs mentioned there is a switch batt option powered via fuse 10 and there is an unswitched option powered via fuse 8.

On my unit there was an in-line connector in the power wire above the headliner that runs along side the antenna. Maybe yours is lose?

New to this forum have a question on a 2017 5600 toolkit. Seems to be in the morning when we go to start it up the engine starts and quits. For the most part it usually starts after that and keeps running the rest of the day. the other morning I started and it did the exact same thing a few times and then it was okay. some days it does not do it all. I am thinking key switch but figured I would run the question here first if there was possibly something else that I am not aware of.
thank you

not sure about the toolcat but the Deere and Cat have a relay to hold the fuel shutoff open, during starting the solenoid is held during the cranking, once it fires it is held by a relay, if this relay is bad the fuel shutoff closes and motor will die, will allays fire back up with the turn of the key

Can anyone tell me if Bobcat has finally solved the problem with curl cylinder not holding pressure on the newer Toolcats?

No they haven't at least not on mine, a 5610 G series.
I have a 72" Brushcat mower and have to constantly adjust the height of the front or it starts dragging.

the Toolcat heating system, there is the valve under the drivers seat and the rheostat on the dash, going to take out the rheostat tomorrow and check but at the valve there is no voltage change regardless where the dial is set, best guess does this mean the rheostat is bad? anything else I should check?

i just had a similar experience with my machine and the A/C its a used machine and I could not get cold air after the engine warmed up. come to find out the previous owner removed the valve under the drive seat. so my ac was fighting the heat. had to make a quick fix. installed a ball valve in the line and shut the heat off. looked at the cost for a new valve, well over $200 so I think I will just keep the $5 ball valve and manually change over from ac to heat when needed.

craneman13, where did you locate the ball valve?
