[QUOTE="Vikes79, post: 126613, member: 23258"] Hello all I have a Gehl 3935 that overall has been a good machine but lately I’ve been chasing electrical gremlins. A year ago I lost power to the entire cab panel at times and narrowed it down to the chassis harness-ROPs main connector. Cleaned, reset, greased and sealed that connector. A month ago, the brake circuit worked intermittently and finally stopped working. No power to the cab panel switch. Removed the instrument panel and found a pulled out spade connector on the delay timer. I cleaned dielectric greased tightened and reinstalled the connector. Brake circuit worked fine till today while I was brush cutting… The switch is fully powered in the lock position (red), when you switch it to the release position (green) the machine works fine for about 5 mins or so, and will lock up the brake on and off every 20 seconds or so causing all kinds of jerks etc . Leave the machine run in with the sticks in neutral, and the switch in the release position, you can see the green light drop out every 20s or so. Bump it to the lock side, and the switch is solid red, no blinking. Let the machine idle in park for a few minutes, release the brake, and you can move the machine for a few minutes, and then the same issue pops up again. Same thing when you shut the machine all the way down. Am I crazy for thinking the timer might be failing? I don’t believe the solenoid is the problem as it would simply not release if it failed. Thanks in advance [/QUOTE]
