Fuse fu5 keeps blowing

Has anybody else encountered this problem fu5 keeps blowing? Originally a 5 amp fuse but has since been replaced with a 10 amp. works for a part shift then blows and no lift/lwer fwd/rev or display. Can't get it to do it when I'm there. Unit has 300 hrs on it wtf!

Looking at the wiring diagram, first thought would be to change the fuel level sensor (LPG) which is directly fed from FU5. Swop to another machine if available? If that doesn't cure it then its most likely a wiring issue, maybe a wire rubbed through & grounding on the chassis somewhere. I would think an internal fault on Access 1 causing a 10A fuse to blow intermittently is very unlikely.

One suggestion is to replace FU5 with a mini-blade 5A auto-reset circuit breaker, this will reset when the fault clears and allow the customer to restart and continue using the machine until eventually the fault becomes more permanent. Not great but maybe better than constant visits.

The black box flight recorder was invented by Australian scientist David Warren in the mid-1950s. While initially met with indifference in Australia, his invention gained international recognition, particularly in the UK, and is now a mandatory piece of safety equipment on all commercial aircraft.
