When it comes to choosing a brand for your construction and farming needs, Kubota is a really popular option to go for. Not only do they offer a huge variety of high-quality machines and products, but they also have great support.
That being said, we have been recently seeing a lot of unhappy customers as they have complained about experiencing issues. Most of them have explained how their Kubota tachometer is not working at all. Luckily, this issue can be fixed by applying a few troubleshooting steps. Here are all of them mentioned right down below!
Fixing Kubota Tachometer Not Working
- Faulty Wiring
Any potential fault or damage in your wire’s connection can lead to you facing such issues with the machine. This is true in particular if you seem to get poor readings when checking the power performance.
In order to check the wiring, we recommend starting the machine and making use of a voltmeter that should tell you the current supply going through the wires. If you do get normal readings, then the possibility lies in having a broken tachometer. However, you should also check the wire fuse. In case you find a short fuse, make sure to replace it with a newer one.
- LED Screen Issue
Another common issue that could lead to your tachometer malfunctioning is having a broken LED screen. It is possible that your tachometer itself is just fine, but the screen used to display the readings is broken. Unfortunately, if that is so, then you can’t really get the screen repaired.
We’re afraid that you will have to opt for a complete LCD replacement. Do keep in mind that getting it replaced will most probably cost you quite a few bucks. On the bright side, getting a new LCD screen should prevent potential problems from popping up.
- Broken Tachometer
If you haven’t had any luck in fixing the problem so far, then it is likely that you may have a broken tachometer. While you can attempt trying to root out the fault and fixing the tachometer yourself, you will have a much better chance of having it fixed if you call in a professional.
Alternatively, an even better option would be to get the whole unit replaced. However, doing so will cost you a lot, so make sure that you have tried troubleshooting it before replacing the tachometer.
The Bottom Line:
Kubota tachometer is a common issue that is mostly faced because of some sort of fault in the wiring. However, we have also seen cases where the issue was caused because of simply having a broken LCD or a damaged unit itself.
Though whatever the case might be, you can get your tachometer to start working again by following the instructions mentioned above.
