Where is Headlight Fuse on Craftsman Model 917.288560

[BNH1978]

Headlights not working on my Craftsman Tractor. Troubleshooting guide says replace fuse as one of the actions. Can't find the fuse. Any help?

Usually only one fuse on the whole mower, but if everything else is working, then the fuse should be fine, but it is usually near the battery. For the headlights, look at the wiring @ the hood hinge, and where they ground on the frame.

If this is the wiring diagram it looks like no fuse? You might want to check the bulbs..

Thats diagram for his model. There's fuse on that diagram also.

There is a fuse in that diagram, but it is for the charging system only. I would the bulbs and the ground connection.

Yes I see the fuse, but for some reason I don't see one to the headlights.

I usually have trouble with the connections at the bulb sockets, or the connector from the mower to the hood.

Looks like the ground wire is black.
