In the previous episode, I finally got a splitter that wasn’t damaged after 3 delivery attempts. It was only then that I learned my bobcats continuous hydraulics did not work.

Glow plugs never worked(but wasn’t the plugs), the alternator charged the battery but also drained the battery(wasn’t the diode), I also found out during the troubleshooting the regulator didn’t work as the wiring harness had charging voltage and not regulator voltage.<div><br></div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">So off to the bobcat dealer it went.

Where have I heard that before?<br>

[James Peck] I ordered a pair of wire piercing electric meter test lead probes on Amazon. They arrived in a box that seems to have been packed in China. I have enclosed a scan of the label. Was the log splitter packed and shipped from China directly?<br>
