My 7753 bobcat skid steer does not fire but it does turn over. Every time I turn the ignition switch to “on” it blows a 10 amp fuse instantly. Thoughts?

SOURCE: ignition fuse blows every time

Please replace the fuse with a higher rated fuse like 50 to 100 amp.

Take care.

Please rate this fixya.

SOURCE: ignition switch fuse terminal is blowing red 40 amp fuse when i try to replace it

A fuse that is consistently blowing is telling you that there is a short in that system. Don't attempt to bridge it or use a larger amp fuse or you will have a major problem. You will need to start tracing wiring to destinations to find the short. If while moving harnesses around problem ceases to exist, look at nearby items where you are working and try to locate what was grounding. Sometimes people will stop if short disappears, leaving open the possibility of it happening again.
If you are not comfortable working with wiring, then leave it to professionals who do this every day. It's not really difficult but requires patience and a good bit of knowledge to do this right!

SOURCE: 20 amp ignition fuse keeps blowing

I'm curious, does this vehicle have an alarm/remote starter? If so I expect the installer didn't wire it correctly ... it was an all too frequent issue, with inexperienced installers we had .... I would first suspect any add-on device first (if any) ... In answer to your question ... I know it does have a relay (Starter solenoid is a relay and built onto the starter) As far as it being a relay or the IGN switch ... I'm skeptical.

SOURCE: windshield wiper fuse blows everytime I turn the ignition on

Try removing the harness connector to the motor, and see if it still blows the fuse, then you've isolated the problem.
