2023 Kioti RX7320pccb
My tractor has 14 hours and has been running like a top. Today I went to start it and nothing, dash does not light up, no signs of life. I checked the battery with a meter and it registered .028 volts. I think the human body has more electricity in it than in my tractor :)
Not sure what could have drained it. Any thoughts?

For me, someone left the interior cab light on. It does not have a timer for auto shutoff.

Any chamce that you left the key on? If not, that's a question for your dealer. You didn't shell out your hard earned money so that you could work on it.

Good news. You know exactly why it won't start and why it's dead!! Charge the battery if it will charge and go from there.

Thanks, I have never turned on the inside lights or run this tractor at night where i would need lights. I also thought that when the key goes off so does all else. I never leave the key in the ignition and I aways lock the cab.

Also as jstpssng mentioned I did not pay over 60k for a tractor with 14 hours to work on it or charge the battery. It has been extremely cold here as of late but it ran perfectly a couple days ago. Its as if someone cut the battery cable.

Cable connections?

Does anyone know about applying for the lemon law? Does it apply to tractor purchases?
I am miffed about spending this much and having to deal with this so soon?

Maybe it's just a bad battery, just have the dealer look at the tractor...

I have contacted the dealer, I am 70 I have never ever bought a new vehicle and had the battery be bad. I have never heard of such a thing Either.

It concerns me a bit as having to deal with the lemon law is no fun and certainly not what i would have expected after spending this amount of money.

I almost bought a Yanmar 359 close to the same level of tractor but I am wondering if purchasing a Kioti was the right choice.
I guess time will tell :-(
