2019 L2501 HST starts then shuts down

[FOXHAVEN]

OK here's what I've done so far. Inspected the fuel tank and looks clean and is 3/4 full.
Pulled the fuel filter housing and inspected the recently replaced fuel filter. Fuel refills the filter housing immediately. The only thing I have done that appears to have had an effect is to cycle the key switch on and of several times and it would stay running after turning over.
I replaced the fuel shutoff solenoid with no difference. My thinking is that the power to the initial open coil is good but the hold open coil is not always getting power. Also I have never experienced an engine shutdown while in use unless I leaned over too far in the seat. My next step since I also have a broken Tach cable is that while I have the dash out for that I may replace the key switch.
Anyone want to kick in there 2 cent solution I'd be happy to hear it.

you might check the charging system. not sure about kubotas but on some the fuel solenoid is linked to the starter switch so that when you start it opens up the solenoid then the charging system keeps it open after that. you could do a temporary power to the fuel solenoid to apply constant power and see if that keeps it running

Troubleshoot the key switch before replacing it. Always troubleshoot, don’t just throw parts at it.

Key switch was good.
Problem solved (the seat switch was bad) jumped the circuit and it tested great so far

All good seat switch was the problem it was intermittent, The tractor starts and stays running after trying it repeatedly I think that was the problem will repost if it rears its ugly head again. Thanks all.

I think I messed up my reply postings so here goes again>
All good
