Two things .........

first PLEEEEASE dont type in all caps - we know you are not yelling - but damn it is hard to read!!!

Also - go back and edit your first post with the phone number - those bots that search forums like this will pick that up and you will get calls out the yingyang!!!!

Somewhere in that "messy" wiring - there is a wire that has not been placed back in the correct place!

Most to the BX 2200 units have a fuel cut off solenoid with two coils. (Last units produced used BX2230 set up)

One coil is the start coil and the other coil is the run coil. If the run coil goes bad, or the fuse feeding it goes bad, the tractor will start but shut off as soon as you release the key.

I had this exact same issue last year or the year before with my BX 2200. The run coil failed in the fuel cut off solenoid. I bought a cheaper replacement off of eBay for 20% of the Kubota price, and it’s been working fine since.
