scrappie24 1 #1 Posted January 24, 2016 HI Im New To This, But I Have A Wheel Horse 520h Powered By An Onan p220 That Has Ran Fine Then Backed Off The Trailer And It Died. Now Has NO Power To The Starter From Key Switch I Can Go Directly To Starter And Make IT Fire Up But Cannot Move IT It Dies When I Try Moving Or Engaging The Blades.

KC9KAS 4,741 #2 Posted January 24, 2016 @scrappie24 sounds like a safety switch problem. After re-reading the post, there are several posts on Red Square dealing with electrical connection problems with the 520's Make sure ALL connections are clean and properly connected. Oh, and Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scrappie24 1 #3 Posted January 24, 2016 (edited) One Thing I Forgot To Mention Was, When The Key Is Turned The Voltage Meter Needle Goes Backwards Tried To Disable The Safety Switches But They Are Not A Simple 2 Wire Switch. So Not Sure How To Disable Them To Figure Which One May Be Bad. Thanks Edited January 24, 2016 by scrappie24 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cheesegrader 433 #4 Posted January 24, 2016 If you have no power when turning the key (No warning lights on the dash), the three possible culprits are 1)battery 2)ignition switch 3)short at fuse block I've played this game more times than I like to remember. I now have a spare ignition switch. I recommend cutting out the old fuse block and replacing with sealed individual holders. You are going to have to do it one day. This should at least get power to relays and safety switches, where things get interesting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its working properly if it goes to the positive with engine running. It should have a volt meter instead of an amp gauge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rob R 958 #9 Posted February 3, 2016 I agree with 608KEB I fixed one recently had like problems, it was the Nine Pin White connector (behind dash) which caused all the problems, soon as I replaced it everything (including all the gauges) worked properly.
