    A300 Keyless Pad Problem

    Problem finally solved. New cab harness, new controller, new pins at controller connector and main harness connector.

    A300 Keyless Pad Problem

    Finally got a day with no blowing snow. Mainframe harness connector had 12.4 volts. Fuse block had 12.4 volts. Checked up at keyless pad .2 and going down to .05 with meter held on pin. My thinking is a break someplace in the cab harness. Am I on the right track?

    A300 Keyless Pad Problem

    So where is the voltage drop coming from?

    A300 Keyless Pad Problem

    What should the voltage be on that red wire? I've got 6.6. There is no red/white wire but there is an orange wire that also reads above 6. Both sides of 25A computer fuse read 13.2. Could the keypad itself be the problem?

    A300 Keyless Pad Problem

    Hello, When I push the yellow start button nothing happens. All Screens stay blank. It did the same thing last week. Two minutes on the charger and ran fine. Today, even with battery reading fully charged, no go. Pushing light button to get codes does nothing. Where do I start looking to solve...

    A300 BICS Problems

    Started up my A300 yesterday. Seat bar shows up but can't get the other 3 to light up so can't move the machine. Restarted engine several times. Tried to get codes, shows NONE on hour meter. Everything worked fine the last time I used the machine. ( Three weeks ago.) I'm backed up to a trailer...

    Thanks Craft. Followed your advice plus, topped tank with fuel, filled 1/2 fuel filter with Diesel 911. Warmer day (25 F), a shot of ether and she started up. Ran it for over an hour pushing snow and working good.

    A300 Fuel Problem?

    Pushing some snow today. After about 45 minutes of running fine, engine starting slowing down and running rough. Throttle position made little difference. Would occasionally rev up but not stay there. Finally died and would not start. Do I have ice in lines/tank? What should I check?

    Bobcat Wiring Harness

    To conclude this tale: I mounted ADC to a piece of UHMW, bolted that to an "L" shaped bracket and mounted it to the battery hold down bolt. It's snug against the interior wall foam and everything works as it should.

    No magnets with mine. Something about "can't ship them in the mail". I'm thinking zip ties.
