Howdy jimg984, I sure could use a copy of that wiring diagram too.

I gotta 3" thick binder full of manuals for my 555A (1985) and I can't seem to find it in there or any kind of electrical schematic.

The backhoe ran great until this last winter then produced the "preverbal" dead battery clicking; only it still clicks after a good charge.

Then, while checking for bad connections and testing the starter directly (which works fine), my ignition system died! At least the dash lights are all dead.

I lifted the dash and some wire connectors are pulled from the ignition switch! (I'm baffled how that happened mysteriously! I know what you're thinking, I must have mistakenly pulled on them somehow) (I didn't! really! OK anything's possible right?) LOL!

So your diagram would be really appreciated. I have snow out there now but will be tackling it as soon as my fingers don't get too numb.

Thanks so much! [email protected]

I got them.
You're a real nice guy Jim to help me and all the rest; even my wife! (She won't have to hear nearly as many cuss words now)
We both thank you!
And I'll put them to good use.
