The deal with a kubota engine is, they put them in many different machines. It won't be teh same from a new holland to a thomas and both have kubota engines.
The thing about a skidsteer is, the newer ones (say 1985 and newer) have starter interlock systems with computer boxes that prevent hydraulic flow and ignition unless you are in teh seat, and the seat belt or safety bar is latched.
As for the Thomas skidsteers, I am not that familiar, but, I have fooled with them somewhat. Generally speaking, if you turn the key and absolutely nothing happens, the first place to start is with the battery, and the battery terminals. IF you are saying that is ok, but you are loosing all functions that normally only work in the "run" position, I would start with the hot wire to the ignition switch for "run" accessories. does the machine have a fuel pump solenoid that automatically shuts the engine down when you turn the key off, or do you decrease the throttle to fully closed to stop the engine? If you can answer that, I can take you through the next steps.
