Hi Moe,its been a long day for me and I am sorry for the delay on my end. Here is the check list for the traction lock control and the repair steps. On our 753 the fuse for the traction lock is in the control panel between your knees as you are sitting in the machine,however some models were located in the rear (left lower side when you open the rear door)
