Wire Harness T-Bar, Hydro (114-3420)
There is a 30 amp fuse (p/n 109103) between the bat-
tery and ignition switch and a 25 amp fuse (p/n 109102)
between the voltage regulator/rectifi er on the engine and
the ignition switch. Failure of the 30 amp fuse disables
the entire electrical system (Fig. 1421).
If the 25 amp fuse fails, focus on the engine portion of
the charging system for the cause. The alternator does
not produce enough amperage to blow the fuse. A short
to ground or a shorted diode in the charging system
could allow the battery to discharge through the regulator
and alternator as soon as the key is turned on. The fuse
will blow to prevent the wire harness from melting.
