start

I have a John Deere 5205 that won’t turn over. Jumped it out at solenoid and it turned over but didn’t start. Switch was on. Will a bad thermistor prevent it from turning over I know it will prevent starting.

Help me get my tractor going again! I have a FX24D that has acquired a gremlin. Had the side covers removed and when I started there was a spark from the right side of the engine compartment, I turned the tractor off and went looking for the culprit and found nothing. Re-started the tractor...

I have a T254 about 11 years old, 516 hours. I have this intermittent no start problem in cold temperatures below 10°F. Turn the key to preheat and the relay will click, light on the dash comes on, 10 seconds later you can hear the relay click again, light goes off. Turn the key to start and...

Tractor was running but will not start. Battery 12.8, new ground cable, all terminals cleaned. Got in the seat, pushed in the clutch, two lights came on on the dash, turned the key to start, there was one click from the starter (I think) the dash lights went out. Now when I turn the key...

I moved my CS2410 into the garage before the last snow about 2 weeks ago. It started and ran just fine at the time. Topped off the diesel in the tank and added winterizer/anti-gel. I went out to use it the other day to do some snow plowing and it won't start. The starter engages, the engine...

Hello all new to the tractor world. Got a 1626 over the summer it has about 8 hours on it. I must have hit the lights with my knee and killed the battery. I put it on a tender for 28 hours and the tender shows green. It won’t turn over. Just a clicking sound when the key is on. It doesn’t even...

I have a 2005 Kioti CK25 Gear model with 1000hrs on the unit (owned since new). The last year or two I've noticed a stumble when the engine is cold. This video was captured when outside temps indicated 28' F. Not sure whether this could be a glow plug or injector issue. Once the tractor...

Long story short, we just went into a deep freeze and a snow storm, so the tractor was needed. Went to move the tractor into "position" by the driveway the day before, tractor was hard to start but I just attributed to cold and been several weeks since it was last run, started, drove and turned...

When I start my bush hog ES2352 the bendix gets caught up in the flywheel

I've got a newer Kubota LX4020 that's a few months old and just had it's 50 hour service. I've had a few issues with it, but we seem to have worked the bugs out and it's running fine. As the weather has gotten colder I've noticed it not wanted to start when it's 30's or below. Specifically today...

Hi, I’ve done research but have not found a solution. 1998 John Deere 310SE backhoe with 4.5l (272ci) diesel engine. When mild temps , starts immediately. When cold, will hardly turn over and sometimes not start. Put battery charger on it and it shows batteries almost fully charged. Three...

I was mowing my pasture and ran over a limb that was buried in the grass. The tractor immediately shutdown. Now it turns over but won't start. The limb was wedged in above the rear axle up to the fender towards the rear light on the PTO side. I have inspected all the wiring but can't see...

1802d Three point hitch won't go down. I am looking for where the lockout assembly is located for a start. thank you!

Hi folks: My 2008 CK 30 is having some starting issues. I replaced the ignition switch, but no joy. I can start the tractor by turning the key, locking the clutch pedal and then jumping the two poles on the start motor with a screwdriver. I swapped the glow plug relay for the ignition relay...

I have a Chine mini-ex (UHI UME18) with a Kubota 902 engine. Since the temps dropped into 30s overnight, I haven’t been able to get it started. It cranks fine and I checked with a meter and the glow plug rail gets 12V. I give it about ten seconds on the “heat” setting and then crank it. I...

I have a 2001 Long Agribusiness 390 HST (version prior to the Farmtrac) that's making a loud clacking noise when trying to start. I don't mean a clicking noise like if the battery was dead or solenoid issue. This is louder and sounds mechanical. At first if it made this noise the engine would...

Looking to purchase my first tractor. Have decent lawn tractor (JD x350) but it's proven inadequate for any projects beyond cutting grass. There is a John Deere dealership nearby, and a Kubota dealer even closer, so I would like to limit my search to these brands. I currently live on a 3.8...

I just bought another 445 so I could use one for mowing and have the loader on the other one for doing other work. I put my deck on the new 445 (which was supposed to be a 2001, but is really a 1994 according to the serial) only to find that the deck doesn't raise and lower only about an inch or...

It is now getting down to the mid to low 40's and I am noticing my 7610 to require more cranking time to start. Once it has been running for a while and I turn it off, it starts as it always has. I usually warm up the GP for 12ish seconds. Any thoughts or suggestions? TIA

Hi guys. I used the tractor last week mowing fields and a few days ago I took off the mower and put on a york rake to spread gravel. It worked fine. I shut it off and tried to start a few days ago. I got one click and nothing. Just so you know what it is and what I've tried: 2007 L5030 Hydro...

(09/29/24) - We have a 2015 New Holland (Boomer 37) that will not run, tractor has only ~ 120 hrs on it. The engine turns over and it starts but only runs for maybe 1-2 seconds then it shuts down. Note - prior to this current no-start condition we were having issues with the DPF (diesel...

I have a 2006 JD 4600 utility tractor. I’ve been having intermittent starting problems and they seem to be getting worse. Sometimes I’ll turn the key and they’ll start right up. Sometimes I’ll turn the key and it will just click once. When I turn the key again, complete silence. if I disconnect...

Owned my 186D for 8 months now. Been slowly going through it. I know mine has been cobbled together many times in its 43 years. Many thanks to the search feature here. Hard start with the Thermostart seems to be a common problem, mine was a bear to start. As I was changing all the...

A friend told a story about an old horse laying down on the ground, so somebody sent for a backhoe to dig a grave for it. But when the backhoe started, the startled horse jumped up, and lived for another year or two. It's good to be proactive, plan your work, etc etc. But isn't this kind of...

I'm using my Branson to row up bales and I shut it off at the day, now it won't start? Turns over good but will not fire. Is there a solenoid for the fule pump? Fuses are good.

I have a 2016 7845R that normally starts in a fraction of a second, barely time to let the key off. Intermittently, and now always, it won't even begin to start. The cranking sounds good and strong. This last time it started instantly but then quit in about 2 seconds and will not restart. My...

As the title says, when it is cold starts right up. works for 5-10 min then dies and would not start again. Let it cooll for 20 minutes, starts and dies almost immediately. Next day starts from the first or second pull. Put a new carb, same thing. Spark plug is dry and light brown color. Spark...

My Boomer 47 was working fine a couple of days ago and then sputtered and stopped. Wouldn't start after that. Let it sit for a bit and then it started and ran for a bit longer and did the same thing. After it stopped this time it wouldn't start again. I went through a number diagnostic steps...

Hello, I picked up a used Turfcat 628 with a Kubota diesel motor. Low hours, very clean, well maintained. Today I experienced that it would start when cool, but after running it for a period of time, I could not get it to restart for about 10-15 minutes if I had to turn off the motor... Almost...

Folks, I have a gently used (2009 model) LA135 with the 22 HP Briggs-Stratton engine. The tractor only has 107 hours on it. I bought it from a neighbor in August 2022 with only 80 hours for a very good price as her husband had passed away and the mower was just sitting in her garage. I use this...

Anyone ever put a remote start on a yt347 before?

Massey 1260 I just got finished changing the hydraulic fluid and filter on the rear end. Cranked it up and it started then died and won't restart, like low oil pressure . No lights are on. That is if they work. Is there a special way to prime after a hydraulic change? There is a fill port...

Hey folks need some help trouble shooting. Parked my Mahindra 3525 last week after mowing the grass and now it won't start. The battery & heating coil lights come on like normal but nothing happens when turning the key. The PTO is off and I replaced the battery at end of last season. Also...

Our tractor will click but won’t start. We replaced fuses, checked safety switches and can’t find anything except this weird wire that seems to go nowhere. What is this and should it be attached to something?

Started up my JD 5055e drove it up to my shop to remove the 3ph to install the backhoe. Shut it off, removed the 3ph equipment and went to restart it. Nothing! I know about the cold start sensor at the front of the engine and that's been unplugged for years now. Thought the battery might be low...

My Tach stops working shortly after startup; it runs for approximately 15 to 20 minutes. I haven't taken the Dash apart yet. My question is, is there a quick way to get the dash out so I can check the connections ? Thanks ahead of time.

I have a Massey Ferguson CG2400 and when I turn the key on the 15 amp and 10 amp fuses blow. The only electrical component that is working is the headlights.

Smoking like crazy but won't hit a lick. Tried either after cool down hit irrationally. Still smoking like crazy. I'm figuring the pump is off time but unsure how to check. Ideas?

Here's a fun one. Satoh 650G ran fine. Sat parked for a day and when I went to start it it wouldn't catch. When it did catch it would run for about 2 seconds and then stall, and run backwards for about 1-2 seconds pushing out the carb. Never seen that before. I have spark - ignition...

My 2400H has developed problem where it is very hard to get started when engine is at ambient temps of 30 - 50 degrees F. It will crank and sputter and then finally start and run rough like on two cylinders for several seconds before firing on all three. This was a pretty sudden change since...

I just bought a Yanmar ym2000 and was told by the previous owner that it would take about 15 min to get it started and that it was getting air in the fuel. I bled the fuel system, hooked battery up to jumper cables and cranked on it for a while with no luck. Since then I tried multiple times to...

Bought a Satoh S650G the other day and while unloading it it ran low on fuel. Refueled with good gas and now it will just crank, fire, run a second and die. But then after about 10 tries of this it ran fine enough to load up a brush hog on a trailer. Shut it off and it did it again. Any help is...
