My friend I buy hay from as an International 706 with non-working lights. He’s in a bit of a bind because he needs the tractor for a hayride Saturday night.

He said the lights quit – for good -- when he stepped on the clutch. This made me suspect wiring near the clutch linkage, but by the time he told me about the problem last night it was too dark to see anything and too late to hang around. I did feel some wires on the clutch pedal side, where the left fender meets the axle housing.

Questions:

1 – Would it be fairly common for the clutch pedal/linkage on a 706 to chew up the wires?

2 – Are there any fuses in the lighting circuit for a 706? If so, where are they located? (Sadly, working without a manual on short notice here!)

Thanks in advance. If time gets too short, I’ll go over Saturday and wire the lights with a temporary switch directly from the battery. That should get him through Saturday night, anyway.

The only wiring near the clutch pedal on a 706 is the safety lockout for the starter, unless there have been some "barnyard customizations" made to the tractor.

Well with my experance on the 06 seires tractors first the fuse next the lite switch they get crusted over on the power terminal that is the top one next it the switch it's self . Myself i do away with the fuse and use a selfresetting circuitbreaker . Now if it is a flat top fender tractor that has more then five lites on it then ya need to split the system as the fuse and the switch will not take it . I split the headlites and red tail lite onto one system and the field lites onto another system and use a 30 amp CV relay with it's owen 20amp breaker this will make the liteswitch last a lot longer and avoid them blackouts .
