    L3901 won't start, possibly after seat safety triggered

    I have an update. We are no experiencing the tractor shutting off randomly, both when on or off the tractor. My wife found the solution to getting it going again, as I wouldn't have tried it. To get it to start again one bounces up and down on the seat a few times and then it will start up...

    L3901 won't start, possibly after seat safety triggered

    Well, my problem is solved, but I can't say what the issue or solution was. I disconnected the battery for 30 minutes. While it was disconnected, I moved the hydrostatic pedal back and forth in an attempt to make sure it was returning to the neutral position between forward and reverse. I...

    Thanks for this clarifying question. It does not crank. That is the issue. I will note that in my original post. It does not crank.

    We were not using the PTO. We were using the forks to move hay bales.

    L3901 won't start, possibly after seat safety triggered

    Hello all, My 20 year old daughter is tiny and struggles to use our tractor. She has to have the seat all the way up and sometimes the seat safety mechanism is triggered because there isn't enough weight towards the back of the seat. She had just moved the tractor and was getting off and it...

    New kid in school, seeking advice.

    It seems to me that people go one of 2 ways with their B## tractor. Either they really don't ever use it for more than a lawn tractor, or they realize it is insufficient for most purposes. I started with a BX series as we had bought 13 acres and I figured I would have various purposes for it...

    Will my L3901 pull a 4 row planter? And what size disc?

    Thanks. I have R1 tires filled with Rim Guard ballast.

    Will my L3901 pull a 4 row planter? And what size disc?

    Hi all, I have a small hobby farm and own a L3901 that generally meets my needs. However, I just bought more acreage. The land deal included a 4 row seeder. There is an 8 acre field for which I would like to plant corn in the near-term. There is an additional 44 acres leased to a neighbor...

    Parking brake light indicator always on

    Update - The HST safety switch arrived and I installed it. The parking indicator light issue went away with that installed. All is good!

    Update #2. The HST safety switch arrived and I installed it. Not only does it work, but the the parking indicator light issue went away as well. All is good!

    Parking brake light indicator always on

    That is a great question. I have everything all taped and tucked up nicely, but I could certainly disconnect it again.

    Parking brake light indicator always on

    Hi all, I had an issue while moving brush this last weekend. I caught a branch and ripped the wires out of my HST neutral safety switch and also blew an EC fuse. I have a new switch on order. I obviously replaced the fuse, then got my tractor temporarily running again by crossing the safety...

    L3901 died instantly an and now giving error coded E-20

    Update. Aside from crossing the wires that came off the switch, I found an EC fuse was also blown. The tractor is now moving! One item of note is the parking brake indicator is permanently lit. I tried engaging and disengaging the breaks and parking lever, but that did nothing. Do you think...

    Well, the saga continues. I twisted the ends of the two wires and tried to start it and nothing. I didn't have time to continue looking, maybe I blew a fuse too?
