Toolmanbill 32 #1 Posted October 22, 2022 Had the tractor returned to me from the dealer after they had no luck repeating the no spark.started mowing and everything worked fine for about 30 minutes then the motor started cutting out when mowing.released pto and motor recovered.soon as I engaged pto motor would shut off.nursed it to the garage and everything went down hill from there.now none of the idiot lights work motor will not turn over seems as though it has no power at all.short in the wire harness?

953 nut 55,218 #2 Posted October 22, 2022 (edited) Never go back to that dealer; NEVER! The attached PDF has the wiring for each circuit which will make it easier to trace down the problem(S). Corrosion and loose terminals are the number one culprit. Edited October 22, 2022 by 953 nut 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
