Our 2005 Skid Steer S185 Turbo has some electrical issues. The engine runs great! The machine has 1046 hours on it. The ECM and probably ACS modules need to be replaced. There might be a gremlin in the wiring. We have replaced multiple harnesses after the dealer diagnosed the problem but it looks like it was misdiagnosed. Selling for parts or repair only. The machine is in overall good shape. We have rigged the ignition system so it starts but 9/10 times you cannot use the bucket/ arm controls because the ACS light is illuminated. The pedal controls are rusted and do not operate. Please come inspect this machine before purchasing. Sold on a Bill of Sale only!
