This morning, I tried the tractor and it started just fine. But I was still suspicious of the battery, so I took it off, went to Autozone where it checked "bad" on their tester. After confirming my original purchase, they exchanged it, and I left with a brand new battery. Put it on the tractor...

Thanks again. As to safety switches, mine has a shuttle switch and PTO. I have often started the tractor while standing on the ground, so I believe it does not have a seat switch or clutch switch. Frankly, I hope it is the battery; I can fix that without a haul to a Kubota dealer.

Thanks for all the responses. My tractor is about a 2006 model, so it doesn't have all the safety switches...no seat switch, no clutch switch, no PTO switch...I don't know what other safety switches it might have. It is not a model with a cab. I suppose I should take the battery off an have it...

I used my L3830GST and FEL forks to unload 2,000 pounds of plywood from my trailer to use on my barn rebuild.

Insert key, turn on, put shuttle in neutral, wait for glo plug click signal, turn key to start = nothing, no noise, no start most of the time. Occasionally starts as normal. What say ye, brain trust? Thanks.
