Hey guys how's it going, we are on a road trip to go pick up a vehicle of sorts. It's a little different than my norm and uh. I think i broke the piggy bank on this. One need some love so we'll throw that in the video too, but first of all we have to go, get it and uh.

That might be a little bit of an issue on itself. So without further ado, let's go make ourselves a video hey guys. So this is it: it's been sitting here for a little while the lift cylinders for the outriggers were taken off to go, get rebuilt and that never happened. I guess they tried taking them apart and couldn't get them apart and just kind of take it as it is.

So it does need some love. It's got a plow blade that goes in the bucket. Our thought was to try to get the plow on my trailer. Now and then have a company come over and move the machine, because it's a little too heavy for for my trailer.

I think it could go on the trailer. It's only double it's uh. They weighs 14 000 pounds and the trailer is ready to put seven on it. Okay, this is close, close yeah, we put two wheels on it.

It's got a thumb for the bucket, which is good tires are pretty. I think it's got sixty six hundred hours on it, something like that. Oh the sun's getting you and that's what those brackets are on the front. They had a flower blade hanging off of those.

I think that was for they had horses and i think hay was getting into the radiator. So that's what that screen is over the front of that all right. Well, you say we fire it up, see what it does if it'll fire up. I don't think we have to do anything, it's warm enough.

We should have to glow it. If it has glow plugs see we get. It starts nice. Let's cycle the cylinders a little, i want to see what leaks goes up.

High up looks like they're weeping from those the curl for the bucket, so the lock is over on that side too, for to hold the boom back. Just like on the termite. Okay, oh that one there you go okay, smooth because got some air in the line. Well, that that not have the outriggers okay, you have to curl up and get back in the lock.

You bring your rpms up too. Why does it look like the cylinders all the way in though, let's give them some rip? Ems? Okay, no question is low. On fluid, sir yeah man he's a little bit more knowledgeable than i am i'm used to a teramite, which is about 10 of that tractor. This doesn't have the balls again.

I wonder if there's a lockout for that that it doesn't allow it to come all the way up. You would think it would just be on that lever, though, though, when you hit the foot pedal for the latch that it would release whatever would lock it coming all the way up. We're gon na try putting some fluid in it see if that'll help. It seems like everything else operates, though, just that it doesn't have to snap to pull itself back uh so trying to use the bucket to push it.

Let's try putting some fluid in it see if that helps it. My only guess just so happen to have got half a bucket anyway, so throw that in there see what it does. I think we got about four gallons to work with. That might be enough.

I would think so it's starting to show up a little bit on that gauge. I think yeah yeah, i think it holds like 30.. Some ridiculous amount, six pails of uh 10 hours later, we'll see you guys in a little while. So we were back a week later because i was a dummy and i didn't know how to latch it.

I looked on youtube and there's a way at the very last. Second, as you are retracting the boom, you push the stick forward again and it will continue with momentum to latch into the travel mode. So we're gon na go jack, the outriggers back up and just make sure it goes down the road okay through the gears, and then we are owners of it still have to get the plow onto the trailer. That's behind us, so we'll go film that well just look at that all right.

So now we got to get those tied up, probably to the each other. Maybe we'll tie to the the backhoe arm at first and then uh once they're, both up again ratchet, strap them all together. Hopefully, the glass isn't gon na be in the way, see how well this goes for us got it got it back it off a little yeah he's only happy the first time i wouldn't stand under it, but okay, let's get that other one. That's like one big mouth trap: okay, don't jiggle it around too much.

I don't want to upset that right. I know this one's even a cheaper, strap than another one. I need to go around that. Don't go i like to use the harbor freight ones the best for situation, nothing against harbor freight hold your thoughts right there, a decent one going across the bottom, one part of it.

You have to go, get it's kind of swampy over here. Hopefully it's not too swampy is get to the plow blade. It's definitely wet that direction. Hopefully, if brown kind of froze last night too and she's iffy like that standing water right there, we've got to hook onto this with the loader and set it on the trailer, probably wrap a chain right around here all right, let's go fire.

The tractor up, i'm gon na warm up and come in here and see if we get this out of here, all right give her a cold start. Neutral energy break is off. Oh, it's got glow, plugs or timer for glow plugs. What's that say, alternator and what's the one to the left oil, do we get nice first we're gon na reverse.

You knock that throttle down a little there. We go. Let's go kinda better important here, so i can't do that yeah. It feels like a start.

Yes, third, just spinner around try not to crush anything. Let's see how you're going into that field, good time to check out the four-wheel drive too. So what puts it in four wheel? Any idea! I want one of you now. What's that pedal dude there we go.

Maybe it's always in four wheel: she's all-wheel drive we'll see what happens. We got a backhoe to get us out right, real water, so swimming hole. Destruction. Do you feel safe with that? Then i'm good, okay, oh so so so! Well, that sure takes up a little bit more room than a car does good thing for a big garage door right, so i think we'll go over.

It now get a. I guess a shopping list of what we need and a little bit better assessment of all the you know, functions and lights and gauges, and all that kind of stuff they're getting kind of hard to find right. Now, as far as in my area, everybody wants a machine and i have become responsible for taking care of plowing a bunch of snow for a property, and i was gon na get a plow truck, but this seemed like much more fun. So we grabbed this, and this came with the plow that you saw that has to get put on.

We do not have brackets for it that made it up to the bucket, they got lost somewhere and it has forks like fork truck forks that hang off the bucket too. I got those also, so i can kind of use it a couple of different ways. This is a 95 and it's a super l. I think this is the largest of the 580 series and i think the super owl gives you a 90 horse turbo diesel, where i think the other ones were 70..

It does look like a bunch of the cylinders. Do leak the two are already been removed from the rear, then for the outriggers. I have them, but they're going to need some love, i'm probably going to drop those off because they have some major uh mix out of the piston part of it, and i think they could possibly repair those compared to uh just trying to put seals in it And saying: okay, let's go for it, which i would have tried to do and the even though just the repair kits are fairly expensive. I think for a couple hundred bucks, a piece just for the seals front tires.

Look like they've pretty much used up any value to them, they're, almost straight across in the middle right. There. The backs we're gon na leave the backs alone, but i may at some point try to get some front ones. Somebody added a weight to the front of it.

This isn't stock, so it's got like another 900 pounds of weight hanging off the front of it. I guess you didn't like when you were driving it down the road. It had a lot of bounce in the front. So you wanted to add a little bit of weight to it.

You say we want to look in the cab or pop the hood, or what would you like to do still lock? I think we just lift right up yeah there you go, it sat for a while. I would suspect to see some mice or something around in it somewhere and i believe it's a cummins four-cylinder. I think it's the same as like the six cylinder truck engines with two cylinders cut off like a cummins 12 valve, so this will be a cummins eight valve two per cylinder fairly simple. But again it is a turbo, though, which moves on the other side.

Doesn't look terrible, i see anything much stuff leaking out of it right there right under there. Can you see it? I've never owned anything. This big or even operated anything this big. So it's all new to me, but you're gon na learn sometime right.

Take a peek on the other side, i have a little terramite backhoe, which is like a two wheel. Drive 20 horsepower gas engine it it does good for what it is, but it it's not. This looks like somebody put a starter on it. At some point.

Hardware looks a little funky on the alternator mount that doesn't look like it would be stock. Does it how long that works battery sound a little low when it's firing up, maybe we'll pop the cover off of the batteries and get a check on then again it sat for a while. I think it's running you know probably four or five months it was sitting there. It fired up pretty good.

All the glass looks good on the cab. I don't see you missing any glass a little bit of bondo or something happening here. Where's some rot smells like mice. On the inside yeah, the glass looks decent.

Let's go hop up in the cab. Take a peek inside there. It's got some rust happening around the cab. Doesn't look terrible though it's not like a car where it has to look pretty you can fix whatever there is.

The headline looks kind of weird. I thought it was. I don't know mold or something all that white that was on there, but i think it's just the fabric came off and that was is what's underneath it. It does smell like mouse piss though, so i think there was a family living up in there.

Even a set of roll uh paper towels there that uh have some chop marks on it, so somebody's been living in it a couple of grills, that's probably the grill for the the register for the the top, maybe for the heat sitting on the floor and a Bunch of the hardware, pins and stuff brackets from the hydraulic cylinders that were in the back, i don't know if we have to have it powered up to for everything. Or can we just turn the key on for the lights and stuff? I don't know what does what that's the wife right and what else we got. I think if it had ac to be the controls for the ac and there's a blower, that it's spitting, spitting stuff out, there's a mouse nest up inside there, and i guess that if it had ac you're, probably a knob punch for this one. I don't know what i know what this one does, but it doesn't move, maybe that's the heat it doesn't move.

We leave that alone fan speed and yeah. I didn't see an ac compressor up there, so i don't know what that is. I think they probably would have punched a hole here for for ac. Maybe these both are.

This was wiper. Wasn't it one of them. Was that one all right? What we got down below here, headlights and whatnot yeah that one turned front lights on? I would think high beam like low b, maybe - and you would think there'd be some on the rear too right here - we'll just flick them all on we'll see. What's on the outside, only one of them lights up, they've got a couple over here.

Oh, that one is, i think this should be four-wheel drive, no that's four ways, and what's that one left and right directional and none of those light up, i don't know what this would be for so what puts it in and out of four-wheel drive? This looks like it just locks and unlocks the differential. I had that one was moving, the the flop blade around. I hit the button and it went into neutral when i hit it, it looks like it's got a disconnect. I don't know if that's for four wheel drive - and i also see a button here, but i don't think that's for neither there's one more down here.

I think that's horn, there you go, and this is just forward and reverse whatever gear you're picking. This is called the shuttle shift, so you pick a gear, whichever one you want one, two, three four and then this is just forward and reverse, so you put it in second, it's second gear forward and reverse, and then it has a torque converter. Just like a automatic car and it slips it's not like you hit a clutch pedal down below. We have split brakes.

You can pull the pin on that. If you want to hit, you know just see, if you're you got the nose up in the air and you're say you're back dragging with the bucket and it's trying to favorite on one side, you can hit the pedal on one side and you can actually steer How the tractor goes by hitting one pedal or the other, it locks up. One of the two big tires in the back: that's your gas pedal or throttle pedal. I should say - and i believe this is going to be your diff lock for the back.

You can lock both wheels together by pushing that one together in the back first foreign drive, though i do not know what engages and disengages that how that would work. I'm kind of thinking this. What's that, there's gon na be guys that know these machines inside and out hey? What can i tell you travel by fire right and then all the controls for the loader bucket yeah float curl? I think one of them is just like return back to whatever position you set it at well, that seems to work pretty good and for the back controls. These are the outriggers that we can't do right now, can't touch them because they are not there, and these are just the two for the um swing of the bucket curl, the bucket uh.

The pedal is for it's called an extended boom, so that boom you saw it moving before gets longer. So this i think this has a dig depth of 18 feet which is decent, it's a nice size hole and that little bar right there. You know it's for locking the uh putting in the travel mode. I said i screwed up on the i was gon na leave the tractor.

I didn't think it had enough hydraulic pressure to go, do what it needed to do and uh at the very last. Second, you take the stick you're pulling it forward like you got the the boom coming in and you push it forward, which is totally counter uh intuitive to what you think it would do and it kind of like free, floats and just the momentum of it just Kind of clicks in and locks it into that travel mode. Now i know all right. I got all the switches on see what we got.

We do not have any of the two center lights. I don't think there's anything in the front right, there's nothing in the grille. No, i didn't think so. So i don't know if that's like high b melody would be the two lights up top and we got anything out back just just the four ways.

I guess those are brake lights be next to it, and then we have none of those lights in the back that are working uh. We should probably make a shopping list of what we need for it. Maybe we'll pick away a little bit out of it, but we have to go place an order on some stuff. Another thing i saw too it's missing: most of the fingers are missing off the bucket there's one right there and they're replaceable from popping new ones.

So you got to get those let's go, make a list a couple things. You know right off the bat we got to rebuild the cylinders, get them on for the outriggers. We need to tease for the bucket. It has no mirrors they're smashed off of it.

Uh make the brackets for the plow remove the screen from the grill, and i guess maybe we can probably start looking into seeing why some of these lights don't work. So the thing is, i don't see any of those switches powering up. You know lighting up that. One that we turned on that turned those up two outside lights.

On that switch lit up. I don't know where the fuse box would be in this. I think that might be probably the best place to maybe go chase right away, so maybe we'll get a garbage. Can over here we'll clean out this cab a little bit and we'll make a pile of stuff that has to go back on it and we'll get rid of uh? You know that crap we run a vacuum over it and try to find out where the fuse box is.

I don't have a manual for it, so i'm going to show that manual, it's probably about 250 bucks. I guess you get the right door open yeah. If you put a piece of foam in here to stave his glass, there is nothing to hold this door open. We go, get a uh, a tie, strap or something it's like.

It's missing the little piston that holds it. That's what we got crappy soda can yeah. Definitely look like the critters are having lunch with that nice chain yeah. It looks like the bottom of the door was rotted out and just kind of fixed it with bondo fiberglass too.

That's the fiberglass right there again, it's a work machine, not an antique car right. Apparently, it's got a block heater to go plug into for those cold winters. I don't know if it's got glow plugs now, we'll look into that. Maybe a little bit later.

Let's see what we got over here, that grill i'm sure that was used for something it clips from the brackets for the pistons. You think that was for. Did you latch with that? A couple spray cans rag and it's like a can of pb blaster. On the other side, i'm gon na hit the cab with a vacuum.

Real, quick, the cab is kind of cleaned out. Let's go: get the battery box open, see what we have inside there and we'll check them, give a buy, throw them on a charger and see what kind of condition they're in while we're playing with the lights. You think one or two, let me see, looks like someone has room for one two. It's right, 24 volt system see how they're tied together.

Generally 24 volt you'll see negative going to positive. So that's the ground going to ground yeah. It says 12-volt they're, tied together and the two hots are tied together: okay, let's throw uh. Let's go: throw a battery check around until we get yeah.

You would think they would have a hold down on them too. So if they're just sitting there, yeah got ta be good when it's bouncing around right all right, so this will be doing both them at the same time, and i think you count to 10 seconds, this meter is a little off like i talked about it once Before somebody said you adjust the screw, i know that, but it would be it's right for voltage um. So if you adjust it for uh load, you would be off on the voltage. So it seems like it's decent.

I'm gon na throw a battery charger on them and we're gon na have to come up with some kind of battery hold down that doesn't look good unless part of the lid nah there's nothing on the lid to hold that down. So we got to come up with something for that. So what's your thoughts where the fuse box would be it looks like a glove box looks like some of the pins. These are what hold the uh the teeth on on the backhoe bucket.

I wonder if you i would think it would be like up around here somewhere right here we take the fuse box, the fuse box glove box out. I kind of need to get to the back of those switches anyway and another option maybe he's over here, which one do you think: let's go start with the front one because i don't see any other panel that comes off anywhere. I didn't see anything under the hood or we could cheat case 580 backhoe fuse location according to tractor forum. The 580d has a single fuse located under the left side of the dash.

That's it one fuse traffic. It's got, ta have a fuse box box, be um. You'll be on the right-hand side of the machine if you're sitting in the seat facing forward where the she metal meets defender. That's where d we got pictures, i give all right we're gon na go hunt for that.

Actually, i think it's right behind that regular screwdriver who uses regular bits anymore. It's even a little squiggly line like the center of a fuse, go figure, all kinds of stuff and even tells us what what's what that's good relays. I guess we could probably turn the key on click, all the switches on and check power across them. You could probe the back side of them.

Let me take a minute to to study that, though, does that look like it's falling out or melted or not sitting in there right? That would be reverse relay. It says it looks like it's all, poofed out, yeah the socket looks a little cooked too. Let's go take out the one next to it. Well, that's going to work out.

Well, you ever get the feeling. Somebody was here before us all right before we get carried away. Let's go plug them back in. I wonder if there are common fuse fuse relay.

It looks like that yeah, it looks puffy, that's not a good sign, even that one sitting a little weird too. I think they're all the same part number yeah. They are good. At least we can kind of mix and match to try to get uh troubleshooting done, but let's go look into the fuses first there we go all kinds of stuff powered up, see i'm looking for something that doesn't have power on one side: power on one side, Not the other okay that one oh there, it goes kind of hoping we find something that 20 is not getting nothing, but it might have to turn something on.

That's not on you, know, okay, so that 10 has nothing on it and the 20 has nothing on those top two spots and they would be rear. Work lights is the 20 front. Work lights is the 10.. Those are the two that we don't have any power on.

I wonder if it has to go through the switches. First, though, i think we have to dig into the switches and see if we have power going to them. I don't know if it goes out and then through the fuse and then out. I don't know the answer to that: let's um real quick, make sure there's no relays that work lights and i don't see anything just a lot of the transmission stuff.

It looks like, and ac relay is not there. That would be if it has ac getting kind of spoiled one ac, though huh all right guess we got ta, go dig into the dash okay, which ones do we see so we're gon na see that doesn't do anything that one's the hazards? We think and that's left and right directional. So these two work - i don't think we're getting anything on this one though just in case i don't know what that would be for possibly the radio can we pop them out, then we can just kind of probe the back of them. I think we can take the glove box out too if we have to, but it looks like, looks like it's barely plugged in yeah.

Let's go get the glove box out of it, we'll take a peek from the other side of it and we'll see. If there's something funky going on with that, oh sure those are phillips. I wonder if that would be more like interior like because it shows the light flashing straight down here, get the glove box out, though we can go, see what we got for rodents. If there is any, i see a bunch of splices yeah, i'm gon na pull that plug out of there.

It looks like yeah, let's see the end of that looks like this just crosses two wires: that's it but they're. Looking pretty cruddy. What do you think? Maybe interior light, there is one above me here then it's tapped into probably for the radio. Let's go grab the tesla see if we get any power coming up to there, nothing, nothing! So whatever it does, it's not doing anything right now, there's another fuse.

We got there anything i guess that would be for the radio. That's all i have to market anything after marketing. Here is a radio right, so we got no power going to that and that comes off that switch there and it goes out. So it's coming from that switch that we don't have working giving her.

Oh, i had nothing my test, light's still good. It looks like it yeah all right, look at no power. I wonder if we can take a jumper wire, we'll just back feed it for now see what comes alive live a little right. It's gon na have a few somewhere or lost power somewhere, okay, so this wire right here test light's crowned test like sucks, so you can't barely see it.

You can see it powering up. So this is hot. Let's quickly back feed that see anything smokes. So i would say it's this one radio comes on, tries to and a radio blinks all right and if we were to make power going on so that that's a dead short wherever that's going, it's going right to ground, so something's an issue with that.

Whatever that switch controls, that's why it's got no power in a blue out whatever it did, it's drawing just way too much. So what would go to that? We got ta figure out what that runs. Uh, let's take a peek at that that dome light because kind of what it looks like right. Where'd that switch go so the picture of the switch shows light facing straight down all right.

That's the only thing i can think of if it, because the other pictures show it they show where the light goes. My guess like that one, i would probably think maybe it's the the low beams out front probably end up opening up this. One too was trying to figure out where that one goes, though, so it was like black and greenish yellow with the colors on it. I don't know what those are.

That's brown, that's brown with something hey. What's this one? No, it's white looks like white and black. That's good, that's! No! It's not a switch how'd. You turn that on and off would have to be that right.

What else would turn that light on? Okay? I no longer have power connected to that and from some odd reason the radio is now powered up by itself, there's no switch connected to it and the radio is on. I wonder if this switch was crappy. It wasn't doing anything before, though one thing fixed itself. I don't know if it does anything.

It looks like this right you're like static in my other radio. I think she's dead, source yeah, nothing even changes, hello, okay, there you go, we got the radio figured out it fixed itself. I just kind of wonder whatever that relay was that was on there man, it's not like it's a ground path, neither yeah it's more yellow, say, yellow and brown, yellow and black hard to see. You know i don't have a wiring diagram for this and they tapped into it the other thing too.

It could be a uh if it was the headlights in the front if one of them are grounded out causing an issue they did put their own fuse in line, though well, i think we keep going. Let's go open this panel up and see if we have any stuff functioning behind here. Take a peek also, i want to see we have any rodents too, you know is the other part of it so because it sure smells like it. So i think we'll take.

I don't know you want to take everything all four or this one. Let's go for all four, not much room to prop you guys up in here. Something just fell out. I don't see anything instantly chopped.

I don't know what that's not plugged into take a peek. Let's um and get this i get this flipped over a little bit. Take a test like we'll probe the back of it see we get here's the only one that lights up, it's already falling halfway out of the socket. Now, let's get the test label probe, i'm gon na mount you somewhere yeah.

I don't know how they're set up, but i think we should get power okay, power on that one's red. So let's just go probe these other ones real, quick and see. If we even got power going to these each one of these all right, everything would be the red on all of them right, nothing, they're! All in the on position, too, don't get a red wire that one's got power. This one does not and that one does not let's go see.

If so this one was it this one? Okay, let's go probe the other bits of it see. Paint power goes through that switch okay. So down is on on that one. I don't know what it works, but that's the other side.

Sometimes it's opposite. You know nothing going out of that lead, but that one makes a circuit going through yeah. A wiring diagram do wonders in this one, so this one's got no power at all. It's got.

No power going to that switch at all so that one's not going to do anything um there we go here. Oops i took out my light. Get my lights, uh easy on the charger. In a second too, i would think that big heavy one should have power.

It's got nothing sometimes they're ground too, you know, they'll be uh, it makes it's continuing a path for ground, and that's the answer to that. I wouldn't think if that was the case, though i don't think it would make the wires red. You know that one works and does this put out power to there's nothing going on on that lead? Sometimes it also daisy chains you have to one off or the other. Let me hear that one and that one okay, you know what i think this one probably is this upper one wasn't gon na see.

I was gon na say all these might have been uh just power to light the switch up. When you turn the dash light on what i mean like this, one goes out and it illuminates the faces of them because they're all the same color, that's why i was thinking that you know all the orange and black. I think we are not getting power. Let's um, let's live, live a little it'll.

Let us know really quick. Okay and she'll light the light up. So that's 12 volts going to it. Let's just literally see if it arcs on us, so it lights up.

But what does it light up? Other lights? Let's go see outside if we have the lights lit up yeah, so that's the power for the lights in the middle and what's wrong with them is just power not getting to that switch. But if we figure that out that'll make power to those, i should probably label it, but maybe you'll remember all right: let's go do the same to the bottom one, and this one see what happens. It draws a lot of current, but so that one is the back lights, so you got ta figure out why power is not going to that switch that'll, get our back lights working and we got to go figure out this one already had power, though didn't it. The bottom one we already said had power, no, maybe yeah, and it was down, i think, was the on yeah.

So that turns that one on, i don't know what it runs. But down is on all right, so we got to go figure out. Why why we? Don't have power to this wire and why we don't have power to this one big reds you got ta go find out where those big reds go and where they're falling. Let's go.

Try that front one again too. Maybe it just drew a lot of current and uh caused it to kick out i'll, try one more time, real, quick and see if we arck out on that one. Now that that's a that's a definite short whatever that is still going to so we got to go figure out what that one is, but we do know what the these are. So, let's go chase with this for now to try to get some of that stuff.

Working but judging by were all the heavy red leads and they're all going to be the power ones. They all seem like they go into the fuse box and it's that harness that they go into. They run down either to the relays or to the fuse box. I don't think i'll pull that fuse box forward in it maybe a little bit and we can see if there's any corrosion, a little look at all the mouse crap down there.

Yeah that could be an issue too. Huh could be just critters. Can we get this plastic right out of here we have to we. Can i wonder if there's a little bit of chewing going on down there? That's screwing us up.

Actually, wasn't it those two fuses that we said it didn't have any um, so rear work lights? It's the 20 amp they're on and the 10. they're on now. That's the outer people i got trying to switch on. I think they're, on which one was the let's just pick away see if anything else larks up, they all should have 12 volts to them anyway.

So we're not going to hurt anything if we go across them, so we got to figure out why those two circuits don't have any power. So it's going to be these two, that one, which is the rear lights and that one he's a ball, wait a minute that did the rear, both of those are doing the rear. It's supposed to be. The 20 is supposed to be the rear and the 10's supposed to be the front now the fact that that one's blown that one's not but we should have probed that and got power on one side when we were testing earlier.

Hopefully i got some of those little fuses. Let's go get rid of the test light yeah. We should have power on one side of that we don't yeah. All right.

We go see guys dig up some fuses anyway, newbies. You know they're junk. It's not going to do anything, let's replace that 22. I don't see it being bad, but although you still don't have power going, i wonder if it's supposed to go through a relay and that's something i could think of.

It's like a relay would turn on like when you turn the key on and then the ignition would allow the circuits to come alive and, judging by that one, that's all puffy. It's kind of a steerness in that direction and give a quick, loose rear light relay either that one power rear light relay. So you can get that out of there. Isn't that the one that the top came off on us yeah, let's just click it by hand.

Okay, huh not saying that that relay's, not any good right, we're just firing it by hand, let's get that fuse box to come away. So what is that cooked? Looking mess right? There looks like it's burnt to you. That might be an issue. I think that's like a fusible link, another one cooked right next to it.

Let's see if we can stab that if you get any power on one side, it's like hell, though, doesn't it i'm sure it's not helping things, so we can get a little bit more slack out of it. It definitely looks like something cooked there, though i think we're going to dig that away because whatever that is that's not right, i think the two wires meet might have two wires meeting right there, that's some kind of connector of some sort. One of those have power. Come on something light up, that would explain why nothing works right right.

I think we should probably disconnect the battery batteries where's that go and kind of pick at this a little bit. I have a feeling that this, the fact that it's all cooked and melted like that is definitely going to be giving some of an issue, and that goes to we're concerned about these two fuses right here, which is that's one of them yeah. These two circuits are running off of that lead right. There has the power probably coming in, and i wonder if it cooks, something behind it, but that's our issue right.

There whatever's going on with the front lights, just came on all the lights just came on, come on, all the lights are on and all the lights are on. I think we found where the problem is good. I'm going to go disconnect the battery and we're going to have to go, try to figure out what's happening inside there and repair that all right. You can kind of tug around a little bit more we're not trying to worry about setting everything on fire.

Let's go cut some of this crap out of here. Whatever that big junction box is, let's see we got to work with you guys, there's a lot of current going through there. You got how many eight eight fog lights. Oh, i did what it did right.

At least we found it come on. You know what that thing is: is that that's not one of those stupid um, you kind of there's little speeds that you slide across to join power together. That would be dumb. That's exactly what it is.

I wonder why it burned out, especially for that much car. That's like something you put on for like they come with the stereos, so i bet you one of the circuits crapped out. Somebody said: oh, we'll just sister them together. Then it burned both of them out, so i'm gon na divide them like glued together.

There we go so it's that one and that one, but the thing is, is one of them still crapped out, though you know, yeah, that's gon na have way too much resistance going across them. Whatever there's a way, we can kind of open this harness up and give a little bit more work room. I take a peek down inside literally two screws took the whole cover off, knowing that would have done that a while ago yeah. I think that somebody was living there.

Let's take a quick peek see if you see another funky wiring, it's like a big junction box right here at least now we can access this mess a little bit. Yeah, i'm gon na go, should just cut them back and then we'll just cut those right out of there and splice it back together with a big connector. That's probably the one. That's broken in half right there yeah those those things suck.

They come with like trailer kits too and what it does is it takes all the wires it like a spade it comes in between the wire, then it just it cuts all the strands off. I'm sure that's what's happening with that right. There too, i'm gon na go chop them and uh. You know those are the two colors that we swapped out by the switches not having power too and uh repair them and try it again.

So i dug some of that crap out of there and hit it with a test light. This one has power on it. This one does not what's weird is when i look at these circuits, there's only a leg on one side: there's not a leg on both sides. I really don't understand no saying so.

There's a wire going on this side, but nothing on this side and what they had, but they had them jump together. So that connector was just bridging these two i'll show you come across and we'll bridge it and it turns the lights on and it's just too much resistance with going across that and it cooked everything that almost looked like a do. You think that was done at the factory, because i i don't see if you look at the back there, you see what i'm talking about you see like it has every other one. I stole power from this one, so without digging in such a huge hole, i think i'm going to try to come up with something that bridges both of them together, but it's done, you know something.

That's got the gauge of these two wires tying them together. If i fire up a soldering iron and tie them together and then i take like some liquid electrical tape - maybe we'll go over it. Well until i hunt down a wiring diagram, i'm going to go with that, i'm not convinced that's great, the rear lights. I do not believe are on a fused circuit.

I think they just got jumped across put power to them. I think somebody disconnected some wires if you pull these, this blue thing here you'll be able to pull the pins out of it. I think somebody did that and moved some stuff around anyway. I soldered them together.

It's not a high resistive joint anymore, and then i just came over with um uh liquid tape and goobed it over the top i'm gon na. Let that set up overnight leave it alone and, like i said, i think one of these relays are probably just not functioning correctly and it was not sending power down to there. But for now i'm gon na leave it all the lights. Work um, just the rear circuit, i'm a little concerned.

It's possibly not fused what i might do if i can't figure it out. I'm just gon na open up the wire that goes to the rear circuit and put an inline fuse inside it over there, and then it will be fused. Just won't be, you know as easily accessed as the other ones, so. Well guys.

I think it's going to be about it on this one. I got just a kind of a quick run down on. What's what and you know chasing a couple things that needed to be addressed and made our shopping list, so the next video will be uh getting those pieces in. Hopefully they all come in, i'm gon na drop the hydraulic cylinders off, get them rebuilt.

I'm not gon na bother screwing with them like, i said they need uh, they need some more love than just putting seals and they have damage to the actual pistons themselves and i think they can repair them they're, not too bad. I think they braze in some material, clean them up and then re-plate them. I think that's how it works, i'm not sure and they're expensive anyway. I think they're.

If you go to replace them. I think they're 1200 bucks a piece, so everything else seems to be decent. I haven't figured out what turns on and off four-wheel drive. I don't know if wheel drive turns on and off if it is just like on all the time.

I i don't know the answer to that, but i figure once we get the outriggers on it. We can lift the bucket in the front and lift the tires off in the back, and you just fire it up, and you know, put in gear and see what does what my guess if it does turn on and off it's either that one switch that we Were screwing with up here, i don't know if it's that, but that had that light thing on it that weird picture of a light you know so i'm not sure maybe uh dash light. That might be i'm guessing. It's that up there and then the other two.

For four-wheel drive, my opinion would be either this, but i think this just kind of puts it in uh everything in neutral, real, quick, the button there and or this guy does it again. I just don't know what the what runs. What but that's what the comment section is for right, so anybody that owns the 95 a lot of the earlier ones had a shifter next to the seat. You put it in and out, but there's nothing there.

I don't see anything, oh wow that would educate me. Also, what works the rear wiper, i don't know it - doesn't operate on the front circuit. Maybe it's that bottom switch that we didn't figure out what it worked again. Maybe some of you get the comments on that one for me, but for this one i think we're done get here.
