sanderson 726 electrics

[Flat 10]

When I bought my 726 pretty much everything electrical worked on it (lights etc). Now 18 months later nothing really works apart from the solo joystick and SLI? I've a feeling that a plug has got water in it somewhere? Any suggestions on where to look, didn't want to pull everything apart I could see while the key things are working.
Thanks

take the cover off over the battery, there are 3 multi pin plugs there that like to corrode, they connect the cab to the chassis loom.

Don't knock the small single black wire off the earth on battery its the earth for the solo joystick! better still move it from the battery terminal and bolt it to the chassis out the way.

fuse box is also bad as its open to the outside and the wires like to rot off.

Is it a speedshift model? (powershift) if so never jump it on 24volts its blows the trans ecu and then it will be a scrapper cause you cant repair it and they have been obsolete for 20 years cause that trany was only used in sanderson.

So helpful thanks. Didn’t tag you as don’t like to always bother the same people. I will try it and let you know how it goes.

Ps you put me off speedshift! It’s a nice machine. Only thing I would like is 24inch wheels....
