I have to remove the front bonnet on a L3901, I believe a rat got in there and chewed my fuel gauge wire. I have to disconnect the DPF and combo switch. Once I remove the steering wheel, the throttle grip,the main switch,can the bonnet be moved enough to reach behind and disconnect the switches?
Thanks

Yes. Keep track of which one of the plugs goes to which of the two square switches, though. The plugs are the same. I don't "hope" your issue lies with the wire, but it's easier to repair a wire than it is to replace the sensor; and I've unfortunately had to replace a bunch of rusted sensors.
