In Reply to: JD 318 Starter Locked posted by Lonnie on Friday, August 27, 2010:
If eng an onan P218 with sol mounted on starter motor,check that all connections tight on sol,jump across battery & starter terminals(large)on sol with a jumper cable or plier handles,starter motor should run,but not engage flywheel,with ign sw in off/stop position take a jumper from battery term on sol to coil term on sol,sol should energize,starter will spin & starter drive will engage flywheel cranking eng,if sol will not energize,then problem in same,if sol,starter work & crank eng then problem in safety sw's or ign sw on tractor.If eng has older style remote mounted sol(not mounted on starter)test as above,only difference is starter will engage & crank eng when jumpimg across or to coil terminal if sol good.I'm not sure if sol avail seperate if mounted on starter,most that I have seen are a unit & you have to buy together(EXPENSIVE-if you buy from a jd dealer)if you need a starter/sol,you might want to consider going to ebay & typeing john deere 318 starter or onan p218 starter in search & get a new/good used one.
