• If the 2 or 3-amp fuse blows each
time the key switch is turned to the
RUN position, a short is probably in
the 2 or 3-amp fuse power circuit or
inside the TDC module. Check red
wire running between fuse and TDC
8-pin connector and pink wire
running between TDC 8-pin
connector and seat switch.
• If sitting on the seat blows this
fuse when the key switch is at the
RUN position, there is probably a
short in the pink wire running
between the seat switch and TDC
2-pin connector or a short may be
inside the TDC module.
MOST LIKELY AREAS TO CHECK FOR
SHORTS:
Wires routed through panels or between frame
and deck.
Wires routed near exhaust manifold or muffler
Wires routed near the drive shaft.
