The tractor is 19 years old. Assume they don't use them anymore

The tractor is old but it does not date back to the Julius Caesar...

My TS115 is the same from memory, its just a sensible way to identify the relays. Curiously it's the only part of the tractor on which I was able to find a Ford logo!

Brake light fuse seems to be marked G, in the bottom right of your pic....

Think that's a relay. Going to check now

We calibrated the control unit and 4wd went off. Now it wont come back on, any ideas please

hopeso

That's strange, as most problems seem to result in the 4wd being stuck on.... Is the switch working alright? Otherwise, try calibrating again, in case something went wrong...

Could be worse. There's a crowd in England,
dk electronics that'd repair it.
They'd probably recommend a back window too, kept shut

The NH dealer said they send the unit to France. We gave up replacing the back window.

I can't understand it either....... With that I'll probably break mine tomorrow.

Slurry pump is the main culprit. 390 was really bad for it too. Have never broken the back window in the case here and have it about 18 years.

Keep the window clean and you shouldn't really need to open the back window much. Actually buy a new window and take off the struts that way no one will be able to keep it open.

It's usually the nut behind the lift lever that causes that.

Yup , I only broke the 390 window once never broke the tm125 window. It's the hinges and nuts and bolts on the tm125 window that's the main problem. The crowd that were replacing it said its common on those tractors.

Sent the panel off to be fixed. Oh went to spread fertiliser this morning and the PTO wont work.

These hinges/nuts bolts etc are relatively cheap.....make sure rubbers go on right way otherwise it can cause shattering

The dampness will play havoc with any electrics in the tractor. Does the tractor live inside or outside by night and when not in use?

Inside all winter with feeder on it. We think the panel being gone means the PTO wont work. It worked the other day with the panel still in.

Just thinking. Would perspex be a better option then no window? Could be bent/moulded to shape with a heat gun and wouldn't shatter as quick. It wouldn't be very see through after awhile but would keep it dry?

How much is a back window roughly for the tm?

Nothing if use your insurance. Most have glass replacement without affecting NCB.

What advantage is the guttler seed box over the last one you had .I presume both place the seed on top of the ground after the power harrow

Still have the APV. Was just told that the APV doesn't like the vibrations of the powerharrow too much as too many electronics. The guttler is all mechanical

What's the cable for that's going over the cab at the rear right hand side beside the ploughing lamps?
