Kubota operator seat sensor

[Formatted]

Drove my neighbour's tractor to give them a hand, went over a big bump and now the seat sensor keeps going off. Thinks the that no one is in the seat, even when someone is. Does anyone know where the sensor is?

Therel be 2 wires comin out of the seat for it if u just join them together it should do away with it

There are lot of wires coming out of the seat, which one in particular?

Tends to be more than just two wires on modern tractor seat sensors to do away with the two wire trick. Should be in the seat cushion ,need to get the base cushion off then maybe either tape it up or put a spacer in then tape it up.

What model is it?

Sounds like that one with lots of wires coming out of the seat....
Best of luck to the OP.

Unless it's a compact model, it'll almost certainly have an air seat, so there'll be wires for that as well.

Itl be wires comin out of the base of the seat and not the armrest if it is 1 of the models with armrest controls

It'll stil be two wires coming oit but joining them won't help if it's a modern one. Take off the bottom cushion and go from there.

There must be a way of by-passing the seat switches, otherwise how could you operate a stationary implement such as a log splitter.

Yes you can but you can not simply connect the two wires. I have had a seat apart on a case puma which had a plate underneath the cushion with springs to hold it up. So I removed the springs. Problem is you need to switch it off once every so many hours or it won't move again. If it was my tractor I would have pulled the whole switch out, put it in an obscure olcation. That way you can also use it as a demobilising switch.
