They dumped the old Kubota L-2250 off late afternoon on a cold day. I was curious why they started the tractor up with a doorbell taped to the loader. They told me the fusible link went and they had to do that to get it on the trailer. The gave me the failed link and somehow it all made some kind of sense. I assured myself that if I replaced the fusible link everything would be OK. I got a new fuse and installed it. When I turned the key to start the motor would not turn over. So Back goes the doorbell. That's how we start the tractor. The tractors 250 miles away so I have not had a lot of time to tinker with this. I do have an owners manual with a wiring diagram. I can't see real good anymore so I have to use a jewelers loop to read it. But as far as I can tell the circuit is pretty simple and should have worked when the link was replaced. My guess is it's either the ignition switch or the safety switch in between the starter and the switch. Where is that safety switch located? Any ideas Guys? I'm making the trip up North tomorrow to drop some stuff off and I can do some lookin'.
