Hello,

My New Holland L553 got buried in muck. I pressure washed it afterwards and now it won't start. It cranks over but thats it. Neither the timer light, nor the start light on the control module light up. It also doesn't sound like the fuel pump is running when I try to start the machine. It ran well before the pressure wash, so I assume I inadvertently got something electrical wet, and a fuse or breaker blew. Does anyone know if there is a fuse for the ignition switch, etc? Where might fuses or breakers be located? Other ideas? Thanks for any help or suggestions!
 
it shows the skid steer has a kubota 1902 engine so I would first check to see if the electric fuel shut-off is opening all the way when key switch is turned on. some use two coils both come on to open the system in the start position and one turns off in the run position so just one coil holds the valve open in use. on these older machine some people convert these back to a manual cable for on and off which is old school and very simple.( i like that the KISS system)
