I crossed the battery cables on my a L345DT tractor when trying to jump a dead battery. I have now bought a new battery and reconnected however I am getting no power to start. Neither the battery charge lamp or oil pressure lamps are coming on. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Cross Battery Cables

Usually there is a fuse in the circuit that will blow if you do this. (Don't ask me how I know this!) look at the wiring diagram in the owners manual. In my case it was a 40A fuse and was between the key switch and the starter and located on the firewall.
Good Luck.
After getting the tractor running again, make sure the alternator is charging properly. Crossing cables can sometimes damage the alternator or regulator.
