The creator traces a dead battery back to a blown 100-amp voltage fuse near the alternator, shows where it's located under the hood, and confirms the fix by checking output voltage afterward. It also briefly mentions straightening a tweaked quick-hitch arm, though that repair itself isn't shown. Useful for owners troubleshooting a no-charge condition on this model.
Posted by Will's Tractor and Auto Repair, an independent repair channel documenting actual shop diagnostic work rather than a dealer sales pitch.
A blown 100 amp voltage fuse near the alternator was the cause, found by tracing the main alternator wire back from the battery.
It is under the hood, requiring the hood to be let down and laying on top of the motor to reach it.
Take the cover off and remove the bolts. Do not pull it out directly or it will break, it must be unbolted.
After replacing the fuse, the tractor was back charging and putting out about 14 volts.
