Kubota air cleaner light?

[daveinnh]

We have a Kubota L4310 HST.

The "Easy Checker" air cleaner light is on when I turn the key to "ON" and remains on when running. The engine operates normally.

I changed both air filters last Nov (about 40 hrs. ago) and just installed new filters again today. The problem remains.

Is there a "re-set" switch somewhere?

Any other causes that might activate the light?

Dave…
You might look at the activation switch, it is screwed into the air cleaner housing. It has a large but weak spring inside… Tap on it, may be stuck. KennyV.

this is usually caused by the sensor on the air intake failing. it does happen a bit. its the round thing screwed into the intake pipe with the wires coming from it. its near the air filter.replace it. this isn't to unusual for a 4310.

Thanks Kenny & Ozzie:

I bought a new sensor. It rained the nite before installing and while taking the side panel off, the rail appeared to "dump" directly atop the sensor connection. I hope Kubota addressed that oversight in subsequent models.

(I placed a recycled plastic part atop the air cleaner housing to divert the rail drainage.)
