Combines blowing fuses F2

I don't know about your F2 but I had an l2 that did that. It was the wire to the seperator hour meter. Mice had chewed it bare somewhere between the seperator switch and the overhead console. I unhooked the wire from the switch and lost my hour meter but no more blown fuses

I had this problem a few years ago on my F2. I can't remember for sure. I think it was a dirty ground wire at my header clutch. I think that I cleaned it off and it worked for a while. I finally for some other reason did a way with the header clutch. I think that I drilled holes through the clutch and put bolts through. I no longer have that combine. So... this is probably not going to help you. A slow blow on a fuse many times indicates a bad connection rather than a short.

I had this same problem on an M2. It turned out to be a loose screw on the armiture on the main shaft where the power goes to the electric cluch. Pop the cover off and take a look.

Do the wires to the clutch run in a groove in the shaft that is covered with a thin metal coverIJ I had this problem on my M2. The cover was cutting into the wires and shorting them when i changed ground speed(non-hydro).I threw away the metal cover and used silicone caulk to hold the wires. works fine.

Found the frayed wire deep under the fuse door. Darn mice. It was gentley scraping against a poor ground, so that's why the fuse wouldn't blow right away. looked up at the modules overhead - oh my, the mice actually ate through some wires, not just the insulation! Very little insulation on any wires up there. Any hope of getting that all fixed again, or just live withoutIJ ----Paul
