[QUOTE="Tin Man, post: 42234, member: 5358"] Thanks for that advice Mike. I was thinking the same thing about the BICS units. See update below. Update: Checked 2 relays with ohm meter - they check out fine. (These didn't get wet) Ran down all grounds - everything was tight, ohm'd out, and now clean. Was checking the wiring for the lights and decided to put in the old ignition switch. Well what do you know? Got ALL solid lights on start-up and it turned the engine off, like it's supposed to. Problem now is that the seat and seat bar lights doesn't illuminate. I get the seat "short to ground" flashes on the BICS. I do get the traction control function to operate though, so I can at least move the machine to get it out of this guys yard if need be. I'm suspecting that the replacement BICS unit is not the correct unit since I don't have the seat sensor. Will be calling Bobcat and probably my dude on Monday. ALSO, even though that new switch from John Deere looks identical and is stamped with the same patent number, either it is faulty, or it is NOT the same switch internally. I'll just have to wait next time for actual Bobcat parts. [/QUOTE]
