I have to open the hood, reach in and move the solenoid arm manually to get it shut down. I've checked the fuses all good, and changed the solenoid. What next?? Is there a relay??
I was mowing the grass when it popped and died. I tried the key and it started right up. I finished cutting and put it back on the trailer and it wouldn't shut down. I'm an old trucker so I knew how to kill it by cutting the air off.
Any suggestions as to what to do??? Anyone else have this problem??
Thanks in advance for any help

When you put the key to off the electric fuel pump should stop. I would try pulling the fuel pump fuse, if that doesn't shut it down it may be the switch. Does the throttle control the speed when the switch is in the off position. If not there were some threads about dpf engines having a problem with the crankcase vent sucking lube oil causing a runaway, not sure if that is possible on a BX without dpf. The WSM for BX2360s is available free at: http://kubotabooks.com/AutoIndex/index.php?dir=Tractor Owners Manuals/, and includes wiring diagrams.
