9.19 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM _____________________________________________________
General precautions to decrease electrical problems are -
•
Make sure that all the connections are clean and correctly fastened.
•
Check the interlock system and fuses at normal intervals. If the interlock system does not operate correctly and
you can not correct the problem, contact an authorized Jacobsen Dealer.
•
Keep the wiring harness away from hot surfaces and moving parts.
•
Check the battery and the alternator.
•
Do not wash or pressure spray around electrical connections and components.
Two in-line fuses are found in the positive battery cable. The 60 amp fuse gives protection for the alternator. The 175
amp fuse gives protection for the vehicle circuits.
Fuses and relays found behind the dashboard are used to protect the vehicle circuits.
If accessories are installed, additional fuses and relays may be located near the fuse panel.
CAUTION
Always turn the ignition switch to the off position and remove the negative (BLACK) battery cable before you inspect
or service the electrical system.
