RE: (ET) FW: More Help please

["Elie, Larry (L.D.)" <lelie ford com>]

I don't have my master diagram here, but it is GE ONLY!  A point that 
needs to 
be made is that your Wheelhorse (and I believe the New Ideas?) use COLOR 
CODED 
WIRES.  EVERY GE I have seen use number only wires, with the numbers 
making some 
sense like 2-03 for example.  I do NOT know if the numbers on the color 
wires 
match the numbers on the black wires.  I have no idea how they kept them 
in production on the same lines at the same times!  This isn't a trivial 
issue 
for a production item.  They were using modules on New Idea instead of the 
relays on a board as well.

I thought I could help but after looking at my wiring drawings I see
conflicting information.
This is for a Wheelhorse C-185 and both of these drawing came out of the
owners manual.

My WIRING DIAGRAM drawing shows from the Power Disconnect Switch:
A wire to Battery: B2 + side through FU-1.
A wire to the Battery Charger: 2-03 ORANGE.
A wire to the PTO Solenoid/Coil: 2 MS-1.
A wire to the Power use Gage: 2-02 ORG and then to the PTO Solenoid/Coil,
@-10 GRN.

My CONNECTION and WIRING SCHEMATIC drawing shows all of the above; PLUS
A wire 2-05 which goes to FU-2 and then wire 17 RED which goes to the lift
switch.

My WIRING DIAGRAM drawing shows from FU-2 wire 17 RED to the lift switch,
but wire 5 RED        to the R Solenoid/Coil.

Hope I didn't confuse the issue further.
Can anyone help ?

Dennis

Hi
It's me again, I started track down the CKTs on my E12M. I think I found a
problem but I would like to confirm it with the group. When I got my ET the
power disconnect had been removed so I am trying to undo the creative 
wiring
done by the previous owner. 
 
I got a new disconnect switch form Bill Gunn. 
 
This is what I got now. 
#6 wire (large)  No. 1 from one terminal of the switch to  (+) terminal of
Battery 1 in the front compartment.
 
On the other terminal of the disconnect a green wire that goes to the  
power
use meter and a Medium sized wire No 2 that goes to the front of the 
tractor
where the charge should be. The charger is disconnected and out of tractor,
the end of this  wire No2 isin the front of the tractor is wrapped in
electrical tape.  
 
I have another #6 wire No 2 that is connected to Terminal no 2 of the PTO
that goes to Terminal no SO-2 on FI,
 
There is no wire from the PTO terminal 2 to the disconnect. 
 
The question is,  Am I missing a wire from Term 2 of the PTO to the  power
disconnect  (Manual say 18.25" shunt of #6 wire) or should the No 2 wire
connected to FI actually be removed and re- connected to the power
disconnect?

Thank in advance.
