[QUOTE="brdgbldr, post: 126021, member: 7474"] I am not overly familiar with the 863, but here are some other ideas. Is the machine throwing any codes or alarms? Press and hold the light button and any codes should come up or “NONE” should be displayed. It sounds like your machine may be stuck in ”LIMP MODE”. You said that fuel was spilt on an electrical harness. You need to check and clean any of the connection points on the harness that got wet. Fuel can migrate in the harness and get into the connectors causing shorts. I use WD-40 Specialist Contact Cleaner Spray. Even if you can’t see any moisture in the connections, clean them. The fuel can be shorting the pins in the connectors right at the base where you can not see. It also wouldn’t hurt to clean and tighten all ground points and the battery connections. [/QUOTE]
