Ok, now I have a electrical question relating the flasher on this 8030 s/n 1020. I found that the original flasher/turn signal unit had taken a crap and you had to tap on it to get anything to work at all. I had just assumed that another similar unit would just drop in and a away I would go.... Well the main power fuse blows everytime I run the switch to the right. The left turn and 4 ways work just fine. I have done some studying and I have discovered that there is a flasher update kit that is available...? Can I get this thru AGCO or does anyone have a suggestion?

Thanks John

Look at the wires where they plug into the back of the switch.
You need to cut the black wire where it comes out of the harness. That was a ground for the original switch. Connect the black wire to the dark blue wire with one of those blue scotch lock squeeze connectors.
