Hi all I'm new to the forums and new to the bobcat world. I just bought an 853 with 2370 hrs on it had some oil leaks and what not but nothing major. Ran it around for an hour or so and all seemed fine with it. I then decided to go to Napa to buy all new filters and fluids for it as well as belts for the left side of the engine, so I did not replace the drive belt but it looked in good condition. I replaced the belts I had bought and changed the air filters, I then started it to make sure all was well. Started right up and went to dig into a mound of dirt and the machine stalled and I lost my instruments as well (or the red light at lest that comes on with the key). The machine will not start now and there is no cranking or clicking or anything no instrument lights etc... the actual headlights work though. Im stumped on this one there are a bunch of connectors disconnected under the cab but they were like that and I don't see any burned wires or anything like that. Any help I could get with this would be extremely appreciated, thank you all for your time and advice!
 
Do the head lights go out when you turn the key to crank at all?
Check the fuses, it could have blown or you may have corroded connections which is quite common.
Lets hope it's something simple.
