Odd, someone moved my post about an 2002 863, to compact track loaders.

I was asking if the touch pad start panel could be replaced by a conventional key switch.
Any clues.
It's not however, a compact track loader. Definitely has wheels.

You can replace it but I believe that it is not just a plug and play thing. I vaguely remember that you have to tell the computer about the change. I can't remember if it is something that can be done without the Bobcat software or not.

Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

I found this video that may help.

Looks plug and play to me. I have since been able to inspect the 863 and found it was not worth the money. But I found 2002 that just has fuel rack issues. So I bought that one instead.
I haven't had time to play with it yet but the previous owner took all the injector pumps out and probably didn't line the rack up with the levers on the pumps. I guess I'll find out once it's off the trailer. Thanks for the info,
