Bobcat CT 235 cranking and turning over, but will not start. Replaced air and fuel filters and fuel is getting to the injectors. Any suggestions?

As I'm sure you are aware since you in the Kioti forums - the Bobcat CT series CK series kioti.

There are several threads dedicated to issues exactly like yours and most of them point to an electrical issue of some sort.

Here are a couple I found that have some good troubleshooting info & pictures that should get you started.

Bad fuse on Stop Solenoid

Bad Key Switch

Bad Relay

Hope this helps & good luck.

Thank you very much!!!

You're very welcome. If none of these help just keep searching this forum for starting issues for other culprits.

Once you get it fixed, be sure to come back and let us know what you found.

Good Luck.

Will do,
I have checked the power relays on the firewall and they are good. Very frustrating, will probably have to take it to the shop.

Did you check the stop solenoid fuse? Its hidden in the fuse box up under the dash RT side - main fuse box number 8 position. Check your owners manual page PM 34

Yes I checked the solenoid fuse, it was good.

Does the stop solenoid click when the key is turned towards start?

Dean, If the engine cranks at a good rate, check the glow plugs are getting power at the bus bar while cranking and ensure the stop solenoid is truly retracting (and staying retracted) when the key is on. If that all checks out, then check that the injection pump rack is free to move.
