John Deere 4310 blows fuze F-5 (ignition) when engaging mid mount PTO.

It is hit and miss. I started it today and the mid pto started without blowing the fuze, but I noticed the rear PTO was turning at the same time. I turned it off and on a few times then it started blowing the fuse again (three times). Does anyone have a recommendation?
Thanks

The mid-mount PTO is run off a gear in the rear pto. So it is normal and required for the rear to turn to power the mid PTO. Need a wiring diagram to see what is run off the F5 fuse. I would look under the tractor on the rt side to see if weeds or brush has pulled any wires loose to start.
