    L2501 will not start

    To wrap this up... I found that the microswitches on the range selector where not engaging. Even though the contacts where being made when neutral was selected, the switches themselves where not being tripped. I put an aggressive bend in the metal contact arms to ensure that the switches where...

    L2501 will not start

    Ok, I have 12v to the ignition switch. The ignition switch meters good. My question is: there are 2 PTO safety switches. Do they work in series? Without taking the out of the case, 1 reads open and 1 reads closed. Is this correct? I can find little information from Kubota on how this...

    L2501 will not start

    L2501D gear drive will not start. PTO switches are good, neutral switch is good, replaced starter relay (metered out of range), ignition switch is good, starter bench tested good, seat switch appeared to be working correctly. There is no wire damage. battery is good and charged. Any ideas?

    L2501 will not start

    Thanks for all the inputs. Dealer service says its a bad safety switch. Mine is gear driven not an HST. I read the PTO switches with my meter and the are closed. Per the schematic, the switches close to allow voltage to the system when the PTO in disengaged. The seat switch is not in the...
