L3710 Air Conditioning Control Panel Removal

[boozaro]

Greetings!

I've got a 1999 Kubota L3710 with a possible electrical issue to the AC. About a year ago, the blue light on the button stopped coming on when it was pressed in. I checked the fuse. No way in heck it was gonna be that easy.

Two questions:

1. Are there any "Oh yeah, that's pretty common. Check the..." situations that I should be looking for?

2. I removed both of the screws securing the temperature control panel, but it doesn't seem to want to come out. I gave it a gentle pull – the last thing I want is to break something else – but it won't come out. Is there a trick to this or something I'm missing?

I'd appreciate any insights. Thanks for your help!

That panel has quite a few cables connected to it, so it's not going to pull out easily.

After some more digging, I found this video:

It's a different model, but as most of you have probably experienced...close enough.

The roof has to come off to access the rear of the panel. It won't come out through the opening.

I hope this helps someone in the future.

Thanks for your response, Wolfman.
