Hi,
This problem started with my tractor not charging, the 7,5 amp Alternator fuse was blown and the display panel with dark.
I removed the alternator and took it to a repair shop that found the Diodes where burned out. So that is one part of the problem.
However with the alternator removed, and I replace the 7,5 amp alternator fuse as soon as I turn the key on the Fuse pops.
So then I check continuity at the wire harness connector where the Alternator signal wires would would connect ( I believe it is the IG signal) and with the fuse blown/removed, I get a short to ground.
Has anyone seen this before, I looked closely and don't see any evidence of a mouse having dinner on the IG signal wire. It looks like the Instrument Panel and Glow relay and Traveling Speed Sensor and Engine Tachometer Sensor are on the same circuit.
Has anyone seen a problem like this where the alternator going bad takes out other sensors? I am concern that Instrument Panel could be cooked.
Any ideas on where to look next would be very welcomed, I can't attach the schematic I am working with but I believe t is correct.
