Hi folks. I just bought an older Furukawa mini excavator with a Kubota V2203 4 cylinder diesel. The key start switch is busted. Any old house key can be inserted to start the engine but more concerning is that I can not get the key into a position for heating the glow plugs. I found a web site for fridayparts.com that offers a switch that lists compatibility with 8 different Kubota models including the 2203 and 1505 ($29.99). I found a switch on ebay that says compatible with 1505 but does not list the 2203 ($25.00). I guess that compatibility lists can sometimes be incomplete. Fridayparts does not have a good trust rating and I have been burned in the past by ordering parts from companies that I have never heard of. Anyone have a source for my V2203 starter switch at a reasonable cost (25-40)?
