dk35 wont shut off

rudy420 · Apr 27, 2006

I have a dk35, that wont turn off. I put a new ignition switch in and a new fuel shut off solenoid on. No luck. Anybody have any suggestions? Thanks

Mine just did the same thing. take the passenger side engine panel off and look at the solonoid located on the lower right area. It will be connected to one of the throttle cables. Mine lost a "pin" and it had to be replaced.
Little Tractor - Sevice Department told me to check it before ordering a replacement solenoid. Sure enough....that was it.
Hope it works for you

Glow plug timer relay will do this also I believe.
Does the Solenoid out on the engine move when the key is turned on and off?

The solenoid does nothing when key is turned off or on? Could it be the wire is grounded somewhere?

With the key off see if the plunger will move in and out easily.
Is this the solenoid you changed?
Could be grounded but unlikely.
Is the battery needing charged?
When the Glow plug timer relay goes bad it will usually drain the battery.

( Rudy, at the price of fuel, you'd better get this fixed-fast!! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif )R.O.F.L., that's a good one. It actually made me laugh when I read it.....I pictured someone continuously adding fuel.....

We had one do this, turned out to be a bad connection in one of the multi connector plugs in the wire harness. easy to fix, but hard to find. If it had been mine, I would have been tempted to just use the mechanical cut off knob...but customers have this notion that things should be done right /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif. hope its an easy fix for you.
