Kubota Safety switch

[jveretto]

I have a Kubota L2800. Having problems with the safety switch under the shifter I think. I know not to operate without the safety switches in place. However, I would like to make a jumper to confirm it is the switch that is bad before I order said switch. The switch has what looks like two contact points with two wires to each. How do I create a temporary jumper? Thanks in advance!

If they are like the ones on my BX; the bracket is mounted by two 6/32 bolts with Phillips head. Could not get them to stay tight. Replaced with graded torque screws and lock washers. Problem has not recurred.

Here is the way the system works.

There are three wires on the switch (black blue orange) that terminate in male pins in the connector.
With the seat only all the way down there should be continuity between the black and orange wire only.
With the seat only up there should be continuity between the black and blue wire only.

You will want to jumper the black and orange wires.

Thanks! I figured out what I was doing!
