Starter part # for Kubota l245dt

[Colin Fischer]

Hey all,

Wondering if any of you know the part number for a Kubota l245dt starter.

Tractor has a brand new fully charged battery, recent solenoid, cables/ground/connections look fine.

The starter itself is clicking when I attempt to start. Jumped the solenoid with a screwdriver, starter still won't turn but kinda tries (clicking but not from solenoid, from the starter itself).

Unless anyone has another idea, i will purchase a new starter once I have the part number... So I can finish planting my garlic!

I appreciate the help.

-Colin

Ya need to check for proper voltage at the starter under load.

The one Matt posted is a great replacement. It is the new type gear reduction. I have installed a lot of them. I would replace both battery cables if you have not done so. I use 2/0 cable and a group 24 battery and these tractors start great. Sometimes we add a starter relay to the system also .

You could have a voltage drop because of bad/dirty connection between starter mount bolts and engine. Check voltages under load. You can unbolt it, clean all the metal and put back on.

Before you replace the starter, make sure the battery cables and especially the grounds are tight and bright.

What value is there in adding a relay to the starter replacement?

The wire to the solenoid from the key switch often goes through several safety switches on newer tractors and should still deliver enough power to the solenoid to start the tractor. But often there is enough voltage drop that the starter won’t work due to the solenoid not working.

Putting a relay with power supply directly from the battery to relay to the solenoid will supply the necessary power when the relay is switched with the key even if it doesn’t have enough power to the solenoid. It would still have enough power to activate the relay.

I doubt that the tractor above (L245) has but one safety switch in the circuit so probably not necessary to do the new relay but it would not hurt anything
