As soon as I start the tractor both gauges go to max ( boy a full tank and way over time ) and stay there till I shut down. Checked fuel and was below half and water temp was around 180 to 200 ! Any help or a electrical schematic would be great!

Thanks rednecklimo85
I have checked just about every connection I could find and all tight!
Wish it was as simple as a connection but with out a diagram I am lost!
Unless I pull the tractor completely apart and trace all wires! Hope I don't have to but will if I can not get a diagram!
Thanks again

Try and get a hold of the guys at messicks. They should be able to hook you up with diagrams. My dealer let me borrow the service manual the first time I delt with a charging issue on my B7200 and I made copy's of all the diagrams and other important info. They were close enough to be of use when my B6100 stopped charging but it'll completely different then your L.

Tried Messicks but it is Sat and a holiday weekend. Gues I will have to drive over to my dealer Tuesday! Thanks rednecklimo85! Have a good and safe holiday weekend!!!!
Sorry about not answering quickly. I was out pulling the covers off the L3010HST found 300 lbs of pine straw and oak leaves! I did not know they could get into such small places! Well back to the jig saw puzzle tractor. By Tuesday I will have it far enough apart to see any thing I need to fix as well as my gauge problem!!! I will keep on tractoring down the lane!!

I just found out why I need a schematic of the electrical system on the L3010HST. It is all most impossible to follow a wire once it is inside a protective tube with several other wires. I also found out me key kill solenoid does not work ether. Well if anyone has one I would be greatly in your debt to get a copy. So just e-mail or pm me! Thanks BKSTMM

For any one that has the same problem! It turned out to be the temp sending unit shorted internally! How could anyone guess a enclosed unit as small as the temp sending unit could short out? Well it did! Hardest thing to change! That's the way my luck goes! Oh well not the last problem I have to solve. Now the radiator is poped a big leak or maybe a large hole in the bottom tank on the right side! Don't know how that happened but I guess I will be in the market for a new RADIATOR now!
