Guys I need a hand.
We own a L2550 and a B6100. The starter switch on the L2550 hasn't cut the tractor off since we owned it back in March; we use the decompression knob to cut the tractor off as the previous owner instructed.
We are now making many small repairs to the L2550, one of which is to replace the starter switch. We had a switch we purchased some time ago (new Kubota 66706-55120) for the B6100 so I tried to make it work although the numbers on the switch terminals are different, there are the same amount. After looking on the internet it seems this particular switch will work for many tractors??
So, I got the switch to work in that it will start the tractor, all the dash lights will come on in the ancillary position but it still will not cut the tractor off. I cannot honestly speak for the glow plug since we have never had to use it but it will not work either since putting the new switch in.
My question is two-fold I guess: 1) Should this switch in fact work? 2) What else might keep the switch from cutting the tractor off and stop the glow plug from heating?
I know these have been touched on generally but couldn't find anything on the site that specifically addressed our situation. Thanks in advance for your help!!
