I am trying to figure out after jumping into my cab and turning key, the data display says bad checks on it now. Hoping someone could enlighten me to what this means. I guess a electrical fault somewhere on machine but not sure where to start

This error means the wrong value of the checksum of the message that the computer receives (calculates it) and the one that is encoded in the message (at the end). If these values do not match, you will get this message.

is it not more likely a checksum error resulting from loading the program from memory ? It appeared as soon as he turned the key

Does this possibly mean like a computer to turn it off and on again or change the batteries in it to reset it. Or is it a bad wire that the computer cannot read the data correctly from. Hoping something I can have a go at fixing.

Also more advice please as I am trying to locate (as it says in my op manual) the part 25 brake switch. Does this mean brake like switch, brake pedal switch,hand brake switch?. Which one am I looking for. I just would like to check if working correctly.

No.25 is the brake pedal switches.
Screw the dash out and you will see them mounted on top off the pedals

Thankyou. Will check now.
Also fuel guage is on red but half tank filed up. Would this mean fuel tank sender which has 4 volts on it need replacing the whole part
