Low Oil Pressure in ZT1 42" with Kohler 7000
 

I have a Cub Cadet ZT1 42" zero-turn mower. Last month, just after my mower was two years old, a quart of oil was on my garage floor. The shop I bought it from replaced the transmission under warranty.

Cub Cadet seemed to have recently come out for an hour meter for my specific mower, so I installed it. Whenever I turn the key, the message "Low Oil Press" appears even before starting. I checked the oil, and it's right at the top mark for where the level should be. After running the mower for a while, the engine never shuts off, even though the low oil pressure is still displayed.

Does anyone know what the issue could be or what I should check? If it was low oil pressure, it seems to me that the engine would immediately shut off when it gets too hot. Since that doesn't happen, I wonder if it's a faulty hour meter.

First, welcome to OCC..... :Welcome2:

That would be normal.

Sounds like something is not wired right.

The Hour Meter, the Oil Light, and the Ignition Switch are different circuits.

I had this situation with my Kohler , is it relevant to your problem?
