Thought I would share this with anyone with a similar problem.
Several months ago my 4330 would intermittently lose electrical power, no lights,no dash readout and of course it wouldn't start
Removed the battery and had it checked,replaced both battery cables cleaned the grounds. Thought it was good to go until I went to start it a couple days ago and had the same issue. Got out the service manual and started checking the wiring diagram . From the battery post there was 13volts, at the starter there was 13volts. There was also a wire going to a fuse block under the hood. This wire is the main supply voltage for the entire tractor.
At the battery there was 13 volts but at the fuse block there was only 2.5 volts assumed it was a bad wire but I discovered that Kubota had put in a connector at the battery end of this wire and evidently it had become intermittent. I basically cut off the old connector and put on a ring terminal to the battery and now I'm back in business.
Sorry to be so wordy I was hoping to explain what was necessary to help someone having this same problem.
