Fusible link
A fusible link wire is used to protect the mower’s entire
electrical system. If too much amperage passes through this
wire it will melt down so that it will no longer allow current to
pass (similar to the way a fuse works). The fusible link wire is
a red wire that goes from the starter terminal to a connector
that links into the main wiring harness.
To replace the fusible link wire (Figure 4-5):
1. Order Hustler part number 385603370.
2. Disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery.
3. Unplug the connector linking the wire to the main
wiring harness.
4. Remove the old fusible link wire from the starter
terminal.
5. Replace the old fusible link wire with a new one-first
attaching to starter terminal, and then connecting into
the main wire harness.
IMPORTANT: Always replace the fusible link wire with
the appropriate fusible link wire for this tractor.
