Hello everyone, I am new to the forum and have a question if anyone has experienced the same issue.
About a year or 3 ago the starter went out on my 1998 953C and was running pretty good with no codes prior to the starter going out. I replaced the starter late last year as I wasn't in a hurry to fix it (wasn't needed for a while), and once I replaced the starter I can start the engine, the bucket works but I can't go anywhere and there are many many codes showing up on the display. I have the service manuals and from what I read it states that if you get a large number of codes that the issue could be with the sensor cable being shorted out or open. I have not found any visible signs of the wiring to the sensors being bad (cut, chewed, etc.) however I have not placed my meter on the cable and will plan to do so soon.
My question is if anyone has encountered this type of issue? Is there a sensor wire on the starter that I may have connected improperly (the manual has a wiring diagram and I think the starter is wired correctly as it does start the engine). Is there a special fuse perhaps (all fuses appear to be good) or perhaps a fusible link that may have opened? Any thoughts would be very appreciated. Many Thanks, CB
