2001 BX2200 won't turn over... relay (re-)wiring question

[Jeff S]

I'll give it a try. Your blue wire should be connected to the Battery cable at the starter. Might be the black wire hanging free? Your yellow that I don't see other than at the relay should be going to the starter solenoid that is currently plugged into the blue wire. The white ground and the red trigger from the original start circuit appear correct.

Not related but trying to figure out how to do this posting thing. No response on previous attempts to "start a conversation " Hydraulic fluid periodically leaking from the split pin plug under clutch housing. Any one out there Experienced this?

Oops. I was still looking at the first pictures. Missed the post 11 picture. Still wonder what the black wire is.

I am going to "Start a Conversation" with you.
Look for an indication near the envelope symbol in the top right page corner.

You need to START YOUR OWN THREAD if you want help with your issues. I've seen a couple posts by you in others people threads (known as hijacking)
click "post thread", pick an appropriate category and give the title a descriptive name, go into the body of the message and tell us what the issue is. Continually posting your questions inside of others threads is considered bad form and won't get you any answers most likely. Seems like you're new to the Internet, so we cut you some slack. Good luck.

I tried to follow all the guidance but not sure I got it right. Before trying to determine which safety switch is blocking full 12v, can someone confirm if this is right or what I might still need to change? So sorry, I am just not very good at this frankly. I was able to get the starter to turn (although the machine didn't start, which I can deal with later) by crossing the main batter stud with the nut and the tab just to the left of it.

Now you need to make sure that you have 12 volts to the red wire in the top left corner when turning the key to start. You likely blew the fuse the way you had it hooked up before.

No and there was not before but there is continuity from the plug to the switch to both wires from the switch that cross the firewall to the starter area... Would that be because one of the safety switches is failing or because I need a new ignition switch... $130 usd... (or perhaps a cheap NAPA alternative). They all seem to use the same Kubota key anyway...

Are all of the fuses good?

- I had a hunch and I don't know about that black wire either...

Continuity from ignition switch to that wire would indicate that the safety switches are working like they should.

Yes. Apologies. I meant to add that. I checked them all along on numerous occasions and not only visually but for continuity with the analog tester...

I see the black wire now. Can you post a closer picture? That might need to be where the yellow wire in your previous picture needs to go.

- ah okay great. I wondered about that so IF I got or get the wiring eventually correct then it's the switch or connections at the switch. The green wire at the switch has been suspect since I unplugged and replugged it as it came out was loose but I thought I connected to that one of four pins... Thanks guys. I really appreciate it. I know it's a PITA but maybe aside from me this will help some other poor sap who sucks at electricity...

Where does the white wire on the right side of the picture go?

86 per the legend

I went back to the first page and looked at your picture and it looks like the white wire is going up and behind the starter. I originally thought that was going to the starter.

But, now that you have that black wire hooked up, I can see that there is a terminal on the starter, next to the battery stud. Is that what you jumped to get it to crank over?

Yes. I crossed those 2 to crank it.

Picture showed up late... oddly enough. That's a ground. I had wondered and reached behind and it goes to that bolt on the frame. It's the other black wire that I plugged into the starter that I don't really know much about.
