QL Mystery Switch
 

The 1650 I recently purchased has a push button below the dash. On my tractor it is not hooked to anhthing. Does anyone know what it would be for?

Definatly a po mod. Maybe for a horn or something

It is NOT original. I am guessing some PO mods.

Hook a horn to it!! :bigthink:

Or an ether injection for easy cold starts!! :biggrin2: I have that on my 584 IH.

Hook up a Nitrus bottle for tall grass:biggrin2:

Or for the glow plugs. My IH 560 has one for glow plugs.........:biggrin2:

Oh yeah, PO mod, possible a horn?

Dive warning? Launch missiles? Eject passenger? Cold beer delivery?

(The Ether shot is a GREAT idea)

Anybody want a button, I think Im gonna take it off.

The heck with the push button, what is the toggle switch for!?? :bigthink:

Electric PTO.

At least that's what its for on my 1650.

PTO switch should be on top of dash above throttle lever.... interesting

Crap! You're right!

<it's been too long since last season for me!!>

Eh easy mistake. These machines are old and possibly had plenty of time to modify. Who knows what have happened to these things

looks to me like someone replaced the fuse holder with the switch

yeah looks like the main fuse is empty and lights fuse has the toggle switch. wonder if the po moved the fuses or just bypasses them. Ive had bad experience jumping fuses and don't recommend.

What happened in your bad experience jumping a fuse. I've done so before, but just temporarily to test something. But again, I am interested in what happened to you.

I melted some wires from a short in the charging system. I was testing too and luckily I didn't hurt anything expensive but I have fixed the problem since and replaced some wire.
