Mahindra 3525

[Wayne Weaver]

Pappa / Dave:
I agree on checking everything relative to the fuse blowing...it may not have been trying to engage the tractor before allowing sufficient warming....I am actually getting it from the service center today.....$483.80 later, I will feel more comfortable knowing that I am starting with a 'clean' tractor.

You asked about my thoughts on the tractor and cost:
1. Thoughts - It runs well and handles as good as any. Mine is a 2-wheel drive, with front-end loader and even-though it has a locking rear differential, it would not compare to a 4-wheel drive unit.
With that said, I expected it not to be a bull-dozer and 1 extra pass on some things doesn't bother a weekender like me much at all.

2. Cost. I think I got a really good deal:
$5,000 Custom built full length trailer
Boxblade
Bushhog
Middle-buster
Tine rake
Full blade (snow blade)
Tow bar
Crop-row plow (not really even sure what this is...looks like a bowling pin setup)
3525 Mahindra, 2WD, Front-end loader....

$18,000

Hard for us to beat. It has 400 hours, and the previous owner was 'hard' on it...but it runs great and will work my 40 acre farm just fine.

Good Luck

I can't believe it. My Model 3525 did the same thing two days ago. I checked the transmission, but I did not check the PTO. Will do that when I get back to the ranch. Could have knocked the PTO back when I got into the tractor or something. The battery is at least six years old so thought it might be it, the ignition switch or ??? To be continued.

What is this national "NO Start Month" for the Mahindra's. Sounds like you blew a fuse since you have no lights or the battery connectors are bad. If it's like the 15 series you will have at least two 50amp fuses besides the other ones. Check them because that's the only thing besides cables that I see would kill the whole tractor and lights.

If you run across one would you mind sending it to me as well - I will do the same for you if I can find one. I have been searching religiously for a day and a half now with no luck. I am not looking to purchase it as I am helping my cousin with the wiring on his tractor.

What sorts of manuals are there? I have a 1538 and need the engine electrical harness diagram. Oddly enough, it's not in my service manual that I do have in paper form.

Well I won't be looking for it anytime soon. When I try the link, it's just inactive. "The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later."
Mahindra doesn't do very well with web related stuff, not even for selling new tractors.
