    I have a 95 L9000 that will not start after sitting the winter. I have fuel right up to the head and spits out the return when I crack the lines, it doesn’t even kick on ether. Any thoughts?

    Only thought I have is cam and crank sensors, but doesn’t make sense that it simply sat over winter and won’t start.

    That’s the only ‘no start’ issue I’ve had with mine.

    Check the battery box for corroded or chewed wires. You need power to the ecm. There is a fuse on my n14 don't know about 12.7. My fuse is on small wire in battery box.

    Fuses are good, maybe I’ll try new crank and cam sensors.

    If it does not cycle, come on and go out with key. You do not have battery voltage to ecm. Check power wires and fuses like other recommended.

    If the SRS, TRS sensors are bad. They normally will fire on either and stay running till you shut it down.
