I was out mowing last week with my New Idea tractor when it suddenly died on me. I lost all power to tractor and am at a loss as to the reason. I had run over a small tree branch with the mower and stopped pto to clear it out of the deck when the power guage went to zero. No more power registering on guage! I pushed tractor back into garage and proceded to trouble shoot, but have not found the reason yet. I checked the main disconnect which is making and good. Checked breaker on firewall which is also good. I thought I found problem with an auxiliary 36 volt line that I had on tractor that was shorting out to frame, but after removing the aux line I still have no power. Tractor reads 36 volt when I meter between front and back batteries but still no
go. I tried to plug charger in, but I get no response or hum at all. Anyone have other ideas that I can look at?
Thanks,
Bob K.
