It has had a history of blowing the 5 amp fuse in the engine bay fuse box. It instantly throws the brake lock on. It has been to a couple shops and one dealer who burned up the EIC panel and it had to be replaced. The third independent shop though they had it fixed and it worked for a month. I borrowed it , it worked great for 3 hours and the next day went 100 yards and blew again. It has been sitting in a machine shed for a year after being hauled on a roll back. It starts and runs, but the minute you even touch the seat with your hand it blows the fuse. It has to be a dead short because it has had up to a 20amp fuse and the same result. I am only assuming that that solenoid is a normally open solenoid and the short closes it. All solenoids have been replaced, seat switch, key switch etc. It has new tracks and they cost about half of what I could buy it for. My question is can I replace the wiring harness without taking the cab,  lift arms etc off? I have decent mechanical skills , but not sure if I have the needed assets to take lift arms , cab etc all the way off or not. Thank you</blockquote>
