At this point, I'm just going to go around any broken splice or blown diode and run a new wire and a new diode, That entire wire harness is wrapped up in some very nice yellow netting that looks substantial. Not going to go in there and make a mess of that. I am a neat freak so the wire will be...

I rechecked the buzzer and it is ok. I initially just jumpered a hot and ground to it and it warbled. I know it also is triggered when you leave the key on without the motor running and it sounded when I did that. I found that it uses the oil pressure switch to tell it the motor is running or...

I never got them to work, but finally realized that I don't need them. I probably won't run through two fills a year with this. I mow about 8 acres every other week. I have found that the diesels burn very little fuel. I used to mow with a Ferguson 20 that held 7 gallons of gasoline and I had to...

Thank you sir for the response. I am beginning to understand how this circuit works. Making sense now. I could not figger out why they put diodes in there in the first place! Hustler did a nice job on those wire looms and I hate cutting into them randomly looking for those diodes. I think I will...

sound like a plan. The buzzer has been working. I checked the leads on it with the engine running and was showing a light on both sides, I was using a probe light, battery was dead on my meter, but I will check it in the next few days, cold in the shop right now. thank you ! if I the value of...

with key on, grounding the sender wire does not bring the light on. the other side of the light does have 12 volts and works with a jumper wire to the sender. So. there is an open in the sender wire from the sender to the light. (evidently) this wirew also goes through a diode to the warning...
