    Another Battery Change, Another Dead ECU

    UPDATE!!! I went and talked to the tech at the dealer that had my tractor, and lets just say I didn't get a warm, fuzzy feeling since I seemed to know more about it than he did. He told me they could call Kubota about it but they wouldn't do anything about it. So I told them I couldn't afford...

    Another Battery Change, Another Dead ECU

    Ok, so I went out to my shed today and looked through the manual. No special process for changing, charging, or jumping the battery. I looked at my notes from the day it happened and I turned on the key, let the start check cycle run, tried to start and nothing. Turned the key off then back on...

    Another Battery Change, Another Dead ECU

    The bracket has rubber bushings around the mounting bolts to absorb vibration I would think, but it had to be flopping up and pretty violently when going over any rough terrain( never happens on a tractor, right?) and as far as tech not doing install properly, I have a backhoe on this and had a...

    I am going tomorrow to dig a little deeper into what all they did to come to their conclusion. My thinking is there might be other reasons why the laptop wouldn't communicate with it, wiring issue, etc.

There was no arching when changing battery and I protected cables when they were removed. Is it possible if...

    Another Battery Change, Another Dead ECU

    No, last time I used was a couple of weeks prior, I noticed the outriggers on the backhoe were bleeding off and I tried to start it to raise them up. I turned the key on, it went through the start up check cycle, tried to start it and nothing.

    Another Battery Change, Another Dead ECU

    The battery in my 2016 MX 5800 went dead last week, so I pulled it out and got it tested. It was bad so I bought a new one, installed it and got the crank, no start, p0605. Had the dealership come out and they couldn't get their laptop to communicate with the ecu, so they pick up the tractor...
