I had same issue with my 2008 YTO X704 at 200 hours, I emailed YTO directly in China, 7 days later and $108.00 US I had a whole instrument cluster arrive at my door, now have 1400 hours without any more instrument issues.
I would suggest you check your wiring first if it is all instruments then it may be a ground connection issue, in my case it was my Tach/hour meter that had stopped working.
If there are any KAMA dealers in North America I would check with them, also KAMA looks very similar to DF and YTO you may be able to get the part at one of these if you need a cluster.
TroyI own a 2008 Tytan X704 which is really a rebranded YTO X704.
It depends on what you need for parts, some parts can be matched to a Jinma or Dong Feng. I order direct from YTO in china, pay with a wire transfer through my bank and in 7 days the part is usually at my door.
The shipping and brokerage fees are usually offset by the savings in the price.
First you need to know what your tractor really is, Dong Feng, Jinma, YTO, etc.

Hi Cal
I usually hook up my hydraulic hoses then use hydraulics on hoe to help line up my pins, takes me usually 5-10 minutes to hook up and be ready to use.
Mine is 3pt connected.

Hi Joe
I have the YTO 704 which I believe has the same alternator JFZ 1512Y-2FE 14V 50A , mine is an integrated unit with only 1 wire, it also has 2 small wires which supply a signal to the Tachometer.
I have up to 14.5 volts of output depending on battery charge, my alternator has 1000 hours on it with no issues so far.

Hi Folks
Just an update on my Tachometer issue, I was able to purchase a new instrument cluster, it is now installed and working fine.

Hi Folks
I have a 2008 YTO 704 I purchased new , I have problems with my tach and hour meter,I have installed an auxiliary hour meter, and in the process of installing an auxiliary Tach, the tach gets the signal from the alternator, I have checked the AC voltage at back of alternator, it is fine(I cannot remember the number), the problem seems to be in my instrument cluster, a new cluster from YTO in china is $ 108.00 usd FOB.
I will replace the cluster eventually but for now a Tach from the local auto parts store is only $25.00.
Your Foton I believe would be the same as my YTO, I have tried to attach photos to this reply but cannot get them to work, if you want to pm me for photos of my tach and alternator feel free to do so.

Thanks Bob
I appreciate the info, Tried to upload a photo, but could not get it downsized for attachment.
I suspected it was lubricated from engine, but needed some confirmation to ease my concern.

Hi Folks
I have a 2008 YTO X704 with 500 hours on it , I purchased it new, the injector pump appears to be lubricated from the engine, I can see no place to add oil or drain , it has two lines, one goes from the injector pump to the engine block and one from the governor to the engine block.
I have been trying to get an english language manual for the engine, I have been in contact with YTO, they sent me an english tractor owners manual that does not mention the injector pump, and a chinese engine service manual , even pictures are not any help in it.
If any anybody has any information on this model it would be appreciated.
Hi Bob
Have you tried lifting both front wheels off the ground , put lever in 4WD position with transmission also in any gear then try turning front shaft at the transfer case if it turns then problem is in transfer case or deeper, in it does not turn then issue is further up front.
Keep us updated, Troy
