This is for a Mahindra but I can't confirm it's for a 5010. It looks like a dipstick is built into the oil fill cap. The 2 dark lines at the bottom of the plug may indicate your high and low fill levels.

GREAT WRITE-UP. I'll check mine tomorrow.

Your project got me thinking that I may do the same but I have a bench seat so it would go in the middle. I have a cheap, plastic console laying around here somewhere that I'm about to go looking for. The one you bought looks padded at the bottom so it won't be abrasive to your seats. Tossing...

Us hillbillies got that covered. We call it a Thermos. :)

I'm not very knowledgeable about engine wiring but shouldn't there be a voltage regulator there to stop that surge? I wonder if your voltage regulator has failed. What was the fault that made you replace the alternator? Could it have been the voltage regulator was the issue (or still is?). If...

Look under the console. From the customer reviews "There is a nylon strap on the underside to slide a seatbelt through to secure it. "

Did you find a resolution yet? Just a heads-up, in my experience, the fuel gauge on the older models are prone to failure. I'd guess I'm on my 3rd one and it too is dead. I'd focus on the headlights/taillights. If the fuel gauge does come back on, all the better but the gauge may just be dead...

Me neither. Did it come with any brackets? Does it have an slot in the back where it can be secured with a seat belt?

Is there anything in the front end jamming things up (like a stick)?

Is this what you're looking for? From the Boss plow site https://www.bossplow.com/en/manuals/index/23 I scrolled down to UTV and clicked on wiring schematic. https://cdn.bossplow.com/content/servicecenter/documents/UTVWiringSchematic.pdf

Have you checked your hyd fluid level lately? My JD acts like this when the fluid level is low (or it's cold).

Welcome to the forum. Have you tried a local hydraulic repair shop? Is it flow for hyd fluid or air?

Can you just make one using fuel line?

Sorry about your situation. :) I agree 100% that they're screwing us. I'll never buy a John Deere again because of the same thing you're going through. Apparently, other mfgr's think the JD model works. Yea, not for me and I'll never buy from those that can't let me work on my tractor ever again.

Welcome to the forum. Do you have any boat marina's around you? Many have a "canvas guy" that drives around and makes custom (exact to fit) covers for boats. A friend of mine does this and he said it would be no problem making a custom cover for most anything. Canvas covered with aluminum frame.
