I have R-50 combine with Deutz engine and the head light would come on at certain times and it was the wind comming off the cooling fan and moving the wires around and causing the problems. It also catches on fire during the the harvest because of the little bit of dust settleing behind the engine. That happens because the dust settles and the warm air coming by the engine heads creates heat and it starts to burn the dust. Just this past season I had three fires cutting soybeans alone.
