I am hoping for some information that would help me out with this.
I have the 6 prong switch but have no wire diagram. If anyone could email me one I would greatly appreciate it.

I did get the tractor started in the middle of the yard as I taped the two AC wires together, and then touched the battery wire and hot wired it. Worked like a champ in a pinch but now I would like to do it correctly. I was playing around with the wires once I got it back to the house and I did get it to start, but once I put the key back to the run position it died. So any schematics of the electrical would be great.
Thanks. |
The switch you have will not work with the Kubota engine.
The switch you have grounds the ignition wire in the off position and is open or neutral in the run position.
The switch you need should be neutral or open in the off option and closed to the hot wire in the run position.
The ignition on the Kubota needs voltage to run as most small engines produce their own voltage when they are running.
Don't wreck things get the right switch from Cub and do it right.
