Craig,
Check the fuses. I believe that some of our New Holland members had a problem where if a certain fuse was blowed, that the tractor would turn over but not start.

I checked all the fuses, they all seem to be good. I'm sure my fuel is fine. It is "winter" diesel and has additive to boot. The engine does not turn over at all. And I checked the seat switch, it seems fine. You don't have to be on the tractor to start it. It was in 4wd but this never mattered before. It has been in 4wd since November. Must be a bad relay or something.
Just so everyone knows. My transmission seems to be fine now. They replaced the computer, some switches, and recalibrated everything. I think this problem is unrelated. Just one more problem to prove that this tractor is possesed or something.
Now for the good...
K.C. Canary is getting me a new tractor and giving me credit for my mower deck that does not fit properly. The terms of the deal or more than I would expect. They are doing right by me. I can't tell you all exactly what the deal is but I can tell you that Mark Brucker and K.C. Canary are a class act. They are handling my trade in house with the approval of the JD rep. I have been nothing but happy with Mark, Jason, and the rest from K.C. Canary. I was just unhappy with the particular tractor that I unfortunately ended up with. I don't think this one tractor is representative of all JD tractors. I got a lemon and they are taking care of me.
I guess that in the long run all this talk about what color tractor to get does not matter. In the end it's the dealership that you will be dealing with. I have been reading this board for 2 years before I made my purchase. I read the stories about problems with all makes of tractors. Alot of people have been hung out to dry by either the manufacturer or the dealers. I feel very lucky to have found K.C. Canary. They stand behind what they sell. They will go the extra mile to make their customers happy. They certainly did right by me.
I would suggest to anyone making a purchase on a tractor to give Mark Brucker a call at K.C. Canary. I cannot begin to tell you how satisfied I am with them. It is not just the tractor you are buying but also the dealer. If you live within 500 miles of K.C. Canary it's worth the drive to check them out no matter what color tractor you favor. You cannot go wrong with this salesman or delership.
I will send as many customers Mark's way as I can. I will also try to make all my future purchases at K.C. Canary first. The absolute bottom line on price does not matter. I will pay extra at K.C. Canary because of how they take care of me. (Their prices are very good anyways)
Thanks all for your help. I should get my new tractor soon.

Their action speaks volumes, not just about their professionalism, but about the value of choosing your dealer carefully. Also the great value this forum has for spreading the word about dealers, both good & bad.
I have no doubt you will be very pleased with your new machine & having good people backing you.

If that was true,you would think the dealer would have come to that conclusion. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Super!!! I've been following this thread with more than a grimace, since I started reading it right around the time I bought my 4310.
I am really pleased that you are finally getting a replacement. I think no matter the brand there is bound to be a dud sometimes...
Best of Luck with the new unit... and I'm hoping you get nothing but good service out of it. I'm only up to 14 hours on mine, but I am more and more impressed with how well it runs, and just how much I can do with it.
Take Care,

Von,
I don't mean to be rude, but, your comment would be great if we were in the Kubota forum. This is the John Deere Forum.

Craig , It's very refreshing to hear someone talk about a dealer that goes the extra mile . I'm glad you have one . I own a differant brand ,and haven't had as many problems with my machine . But, anything that I've brought up has been dealt with quite fast . We all have a choice of many different makes ,models and prices . But I believe it all comes down to service in the long run . Your dealer is a" keeper" Let us know how you like your New machine . All the best , John
