Volvo EC25 Electrical issue

[Shane O'Neill]

My Volvo EC25 (2003) hydraulics stopped working when I was using machine - (engine still running). Next, I turned off engine and tried to start again but engine would not crank. First thing I checked was safety switch but it seems fine - (I have not checked wiring yet, just switch). I was checking the fuses and the fuse number 2 - (7.5amp) was blown. I swapped out fuse but it failed straight away when I turned ignition on. Does anyone know what fuse number 2 is for? and would it have anything to do with the starting circuit? I badly need a wiring diagram if anyone can kindly supply to me. I have attached photo of fuse box - Fuse number 2 is the second from the left - (I have fuse removed in photo).

Fuse 2 is connected to the dead man solenoid, Id disconnect the plug at the solenoid and see if the fuse doesn't blow

Guys, thank you all that helped me out. The problem was a defective relay in the end. Digger up and running again.
