Thanks Forum, B7800 restarted - safety switches

[Mudder]

Don’t usually post as others have more knowledge and ‘04 Kubota 7800 has been dependable, but forum research today on crank but no start issue was most helpful on safety switches troubleshooting. Searching found old posts, with some inoperable service manual links (ie, WSM.) Any fresher B7800 links? Thx.

Just had a problem with the HST pedal safety switch malfunction, but did not have the time to fix it at this time. Fortunately, I have a safety switch bypass switch which disables them all, and allows me to keep doing what I'm doing. It has now been replaced with no down time.

Are you having an issue? (I've likely encountered most any issue you could encounter on a B7800, having put over 1,100 hrs on mine.)

maybe you can give more detail on the safety switch bypass thanks.

Each tractor model would have a different way of doing it. You would have to go to the circuit diagram to see what was required for one switch to bypass them all.
