My mower has worked perfectly. Never any problem starting before. No slow/hard starts or anything. I used the mower a couple of days ago and went to start it up yesterday...turned the key and...nothing. No click, no buzz, no hum, and certainly no start.
Tried:
Battery dead? nope. Put a meter on it and it's fine.
Battery terminals dirty? Nope, sparkly clean.
Fuse? Nope, looks good to me.
Saftey switches? seat - check, PTO - check, brake - check.
Bypass the solenoid? did nothing. NOTHING.
All wires and connections seem to be fine. It must be electrical, because the engine doesn't even seem to know that I'm even trying to start it. Is it the switch? How can I test that? Do I have to pay $$$ and take this thing to the shop?
