Thanks,was slewing and suddenly it stopped,,I lifted and lowered the armrest to see if the switch was causing it,but no,I switched it off but it wouldnt start again,the engine was turning over,but not starting,there was no glow plug light showing either.
There are 3 fuses showing as ignition key lock out,one was blown,after replacement it started and worked,but stopped again after a minute,it blew one of the other 3 fuses,it was replaced and then worked for a minute or two again,but stopped,now the fuses are ok,but no hydraulics working,but machine starting ok,,
Suspecting it may be the switch on the arm rest or a wire from it shorting?
Possibly needing to trace a wire from switch to cut off switch for hydraulics?,,cheers

Tb 230 quick hitch box, beacons, immobiliser, tracker and seat belt wiring with conduit pulled through the same hole as left hand control cabling, so made very tight and rubbed out the deadman and hitch slider wiring to the ECU, was blowing 25amp fuse on the OPT circuit,
