Hi there, have you ever had any issues with the switch for the threshing drum? Our switch appears to not be working and while we’ve tried switching the fuses in the cab no on avail, we’re a bit unsure as to what else it could be. Is this a job for a mechanic or can it potentially be solved an easier way? For example are there fuses elsewhere apart from inside the cab? Or has this problem happened to you and you found an easy fix?

Hi, its not my combine but I asked the owner and he said that he hasn't had any trouble with the drum and he's not sure which switch you mean. If its for setting the drum speed, there is a small motor that controls the drum speed and that would be a good place to start. He thinks its possible to bypass the electronic system and set it manually.

@jamesmaughan Thank you so much for your help, to be honest I’m unsure of the switch myself. The problem was shared with me and I said to my co-worker have they tried finding the solution on KZbin at all. The drum speed I do remember him talking about. I’ll be sure to forward what the owner of yours said and see if they can sort it out. Thanks again.
