I recently purchased a used Kubota L2950. It runs great, but is going through batteries like beer on a sunny day. On my third battery, which lasted all of 2 weeks and we're back to the jumpers.
Any thoughts on cause of this problem??

Sounds like a charging problem or a short. First put a volt meter across the battery and see if your getting 13.5 to 14.5 volts while its running, if you are most likely the alt is OK, that's if it's a 12 volt system. If the alt checks good then check for a short with the tractor OFF. Remove a cable and run it through an amp meter and see if you have an amp draw while its off, if you do start removing items or looking for bare wires until the draw on the meter goes away. I have seen the light switches fail, in fact I just replaced one a few weeks ago on mine. Good Luck!! ....
