Kubota l3130 HST with cab and FEL - switch issue?

[Skrizan]

Hawkeye, I checked the wiring as much as I can. Most is covered with plastic conduit and pretty secure. When I talked to the dealer they said the wire is usually not the problem unless it is mice chewed.

Did you check the hst pedal switch ? Maybe out of adjustment and shutting down the tractor

Is that the same thing as the neutral switch? I checked it for resistance and that was good. How do you check it for adjustment? I know it was threaded in and it seemed to be holding the pin into the switch at neutral.

On my l3800 sometimes I have to jiggle the hst pedal to start the tractor , So yes neutral switch

Opc timer switch coming tomorrow. Will let you know outcome. In the meantime
a comment on the mentioned PTO switch and neutral switch - both pass ohm tests, and I understand how they could cause a no start, but if tractor starts and I am sitting on the seat, the pedal can leave neutral and the PTO can be engaged. I wouldn't think they could cause shutdown unless I am missing something?

OPC timer did the trick. Thanks to all who helped!
