TC33DA lights have me stumped!

Nice piece of troubleshooting jbman45. Good info on industry standard parts too.

did the orange lights on the TC33 always flash?

my 2001 they dont flash... they just turn on... (i use them as my backup lights when i pull into the barn at night).... they are surpriseingly bright....

The orange lights on my 2001 TC25D flash when I turn on the 4 way flasher switch, and like yours, come on with the headlights. Were flashers a feature of the D models?

Steve: All is working now as it's supposed to for the year I have, 2003/2004. I have Yellow lights above the red lights on each side. both yellow lights flash with hte hazard switch on, whether the tractor is running or not.

When night lights are on, then tail lights are on only.

when you put on turn signals, then on the side turning the yellow light flashes and the tail light flashes with the bright stop light. On the other side, non turning side the yellow light comes on and stays on steady.

Hope that helps. If your yellow lights don't flash, then I would check the flashing unit and the hazard cut out relay, those seem most likely after all I went through.

good luck...

Mike PA: I don't know about your year but I think if you have the turn signal switch, then you get flashing red and yellow lights on the side you turn. If you have a hazard switch the amber lights are supposed to flash when you turn the hazard switch on, not just stay on. Like the note before this one I would check the flasher unit, big 2x3 inch or so module on hte right side along with the lower bank of relays. there is a bench test using jumpers and a 12v source you can use to check the module, sort of difficult with the small prongs but can be done. If you can't find the module test, I might be able to send it to you but I'm in the middle of a move and don't have my scanner set up yet.

You might start a new thread asking for someone with a year like yours the question rather than continue this one, getting a bit long!

My 2001 TC25D does not have turn signals.

ive got red "lights" in the fenders but they have no wires going to them... current version only have reflector tape in those spots

the orange lights attached to the rops do not blink.... although they do come on when you flip the "other" dash switch....
