    BX2370 power loss after fuel filter replacement

    Remote diagnosis is so much fun - Ha... So I'll give you two more ideas. 1- The seat switch input is to a timer relay (see electrical schematic I posted a while back). You might want to try a jumper at the relay if jumpering the switch doesn't diagnose it. 2- Take a look at the engine stop /...

    KubotaBX23s Starting problem

    I'm a little late to this party but two things... 1) On some models, like my '08 BX2360, when you apply power directly to the solenoid you are bypassing all safeties and the engine will not only crank it will likely start - even if the key is off. 2) If you have trouble with the maze-type...

    BX2370 power loss after fuel filter replacement

    So I don't want to send you down a wrong path, and I need to say most of my experience is with gasoline engines, but if it's putting out black smoke I would think that means too much fuel. Did you do any other servicing where you could have created periodic closing of the air intake like the...

    BX2680 won't shutoff

    My understanding is that there are two basic systems for stopping injection. First type uses a solenoid that only energizes to activate the injection pump when you want engine to run and de-energizes to stop. Second type uses a solenoid to momentarily (about 8 seconds) move the injection pump to...

    If you don't feel protected...

    A-10s were the last to fly out of local base before they closed it. We were in the pattern and they always flew low and slow right at us and started their turn over our barn. It never got old watching them.

    B5100 electrical issue

    Agree with last two comments. . . Starter small red wire needs to be on same post as wire from battery (large red wire). I created a simplified schematic for my BX...

    Mulch?

    Nothing happens at first because it's too cold during the winter here but over the summer it successfully turns to compost. I usually turn it or rototill it a couple times over the summer and I have compost for the next year. I add kitchen vegetable scraps and some Garden waste. Other than that...

    B2650 aux lighting

    I hate putting holes in nice panels (Swiss cheese). i7win7 has a really clean install with the switches and with the ability to hook up different electrical devices. Look at his link above, it's pretty thorough.

    B2920 no start issue?

    So you've proven the battery, starter, & ground circuits are good. However, I'm confused that you say you measure battery voltage in the circuit. With all circuit components connected, including the blk/wht wire connected to the starter, that wouldn't seem possible to have battery voltage and...

    B2920 no start issue?

    Did you ever verify that the starter itself including the solenoid is okay?

    B2920 no start issue?

    Are you checking voltages with the (probably black/white) wire connected to the solenoid? if no, connect that wire to the solenoid double check that it has a good connection and then back probe to check the circuit voltages. Are you sure there's not something funky with the connection at the...

    B2920 no start issue?

    Try checking for battery voltage at various points in the circuit when you turn the key switch to start. Be careful as you might inadvertently find the open while you're working on it and the engine could suddenly start cranking. I would suggest hooking the voltmeter up to points in the circuit...

    RCK 60-23BX mower Belt Replacement

    Last alternative would be to get two single V belts from an industrial supply house near you. Make sure 2 belts are from same manufacturer to minimize stretch differences. I've done this on other equipment. Ultimately comes down to short vs long cost & convenience. Installing 2 belts can be...

    BX23 Electrical Schematics – Engine Crank/Start and Engine Stop Systems

    And BTW I don't object to your wanting to verify that I'm the creator. I went a little crazy with a watermark and copywrite notice as I've had work stolen before. Thanks.

    BX23 Electrical Schematics – Engine Crank/Start and Engine Stop Systems

    Hi Wolfman, Not sure how to send you a PM tell me how to do that and I will. Yes, I created these schematics and used to do it for a living and, in fact, was in the company that created the concept of only showing a functional system. What kind of proof do you want me to send? With regard to the...

    BX23 Electrical Schematics – Engine Crank/Start and Engine Stop Systems

    Attached two PDF documents are my functional system electrical schematics for my '08 BX23. These schematics use standard automotive technician nomenclature, not a wire maze, and only a basic understanding of electrical systems is needed to use. I put these together so that I could understand...
