Electrical Diagnosis of Riding Lawnmower that Won't Start

[@aaronwilliamson4045]

I'm an electrical engineer, retired from utility control circuit design. This presentation was the most correct in electrical terms that i think i have seen. Good trouble shooting techniques as well.

[@gregoryorr8707]

I have watched many, many videos while attempting to do all sorts of repairs. This video, by far, is the most informative one I have ever watched. I went from just trying to get my mower running (which I did) to getting a full blown tutorial on the entire electrical system. Now I actually understand how it all works, which will certainly pay off in the future. Thank you so much for this.

[@EliminatorPerformance]

Glad it helped, thanks for watching!

[@TheBigOPossum1]

I fully agree with Gregory Orr's comment above. The best electrical troubleshooting video I've seen. Well done!!! This should help anyone who takes the time to watch it. Simple, complete and spot on.

[@ddelmo32]

This gentleman's video was exceptional and is deserving of viewership and $$$$$

[@davidolley7283]

As a complete novice with a multimeter, I followed your steps and located the problem. Clear, easy to follow instructions, with no waffle. The best instructional video I have seen on KZbin. A lesson to others on how to do it. Good job

[@IDEAclubDSC]

I can't thank you enough. I am a 63 year old wife, and my husband has dementia. My craftsman zero turn quit on me last week, and I had to fix it myself. You made the job very easy for me. I didn't realize that even though my battery showed it had 12.5 volts, it won't hold the charge under a load. I went through half of your tests and was getting 12 volts at all the contact points. So I put my battery charger on and it said the battery was bad. You are my new mechanic and you are a GREAT teacher!

[@tbird430]

🙏

[@tawoo]

Hands down the absolute best video I've ever seen to find a problem. Thank you so much!

[@davidruiz5383]

Although I am not mechanically incline, the more I watch your videos, the more I understand. Your teaching will help many of us diagnose our own lawn tractors. I thank individual like you that share your skills. Your continuation of videos on diagnosing Electrical issues will make you a great instructor. Again thanks and God Bless.

[@evetsonirut]

This might be the best KZbin presentation I've ever seen. Such a great explanation of a small engine electrical system! Thanks Eliminator!!!

[@leebarker539]

Amazing presentation. Not a single um, or aaaah, or "you know" or "like I said." This man knows his stuff and, our good luck, he knows how to share it clearly and efficiently. He could be a college professor; he talks like one. Knowledge, confidently delivered, is like the proverbial gold to watchers like us. Eliminator Performance is THE MAN and this video sets a very high bar for others to attempt to reach.

[@EliminatorPerformance]

Thanks for the kind words Lee! I try my best not to say uh, you know or like I said but sometimes they slip in. Thanks for watching!

[@SamGoeblin]

It's this kind of video that I am talking about when I talk about being a proud graduate of KZbin University. Thank you so much for this tutorial.

[@EliminatorPerformance]

Thanks for the kind words, and thanks for watching!

[@yokademmers3048]

Thank you for making your diagnostic information easy to understand even to me, being a 70 yr old woman. While watching ur video on my cell, I was able to diagnose my ride on by my self. U were so helpful.👍🏼

[@EliminatorPerformance]

Thanks for the kind words, glad it helped!

[@dgriffin6074]

I have watched numerous KZbin lawn mower, repair videos and yours is, by far, the most comprehensive and easy to understand. I have a 2005 Troy-Bilt with a Briggs & Stratton 18.5 hp engine and I'm doing my best to make it last as long as possible. Lawn mower prices today are roughly twice what they were when I purchased that one.

[@superone4u]

Gj. This is by far the best, simplest riding mower electrical diagnostic tutorial on Utube.

[@adamhalcyon3393]

Omg. Thank you. Not only did you diagnose my tractor but you taught me all about it too.

[@Eddiepurple1]

This was actually fun to watch. I've been working on my mowers for many years. Sometimes they can get frustrating. But having a good attitude towards the repairs etc. is the key. Great job!

[@mjlatham]

most informative riding lawnmower troubleshooting video ever. you are a natural teacher.

[@rvalens2]

Hurray! I was able to fix my mower. I went to one of your other videos where you talk about carburetor problems, and I was able to get the mower running by spraying a liberal amount of carb cleaner into it. The carb itself looked really clean, but there must have been some gunk in one of the jets that broke loose when I sprayed it. It now runs like a top! I bought a used mower engine off of eBay, cleaned it up, installed the carburetor off my old blown engine and saved myself $600! My mower now looks and runs amazing - not bad for a Sears Craftsman mower that was built in 1997.

[@eg7on]

Simply the best all-around instructions on the internet !!!! Thanks!

[@EliminatorPerformance]

Thanks for watching!

[@AngelLopez-u5w]

I'm so happy there are people like you who share there experiences and knowledge . Dude thank you so much . Couldn't get my ridding lawn mower on . Next step was a hammer. I cleaned the contacts . Old Betsy turned on . May life bless u back multiple times .

[@tellitallnow3914]

DAM!!! I have been searching for a trouble shoot video like tgis for 2 years!!! All of them seem to start half way thru a test and never give any good details. YOU ARE THE MAN!! I AM NO LINGER ELECTRICAL DUMB!!! Thanks brother!! Subbed!!

[@SkipWiley911]

I have used KZbin to research things from A to Z. Never have I found a video that was so informative AND enjoyable. Thank you very much.

[@derrick2848]

Hey I have been a mechanic for 33 years I just came across your video and man I wish my instructors could explain things the way you do would have made apprenticeship school a lot easier. Very nice job you did with the video 👍🏻

[@searay422011]

I watched many videos to repaired my 300 xJohn Deere and did find my problem after spending many hours remove starter solenoid switches and it was exactly what you explained. My battery was a full load but did not have a battery load tester, and at the end, I boosted with my gator and it started and realize it must be the battery. Thanks for clarifying this situation. You’re the only one video that I watch that explained this. thumbs up and yes I will get a battery load tester.

[@rb30athorn]

Most clear and complete diagnostic on the web! thanks

[@arthurstewart7781]

Kia Ora from New Zealand, I have 2 broken rideon mowers at the moment, I think both have an electrical fault as they both stopped while mowing. I suspect they may be safely switches. I am yet to explore the problem. I just wanted to say thanks for your great advice on repairs. I found this one very informative, and I learnt so much from it. Please keep up the great work you are doing, which helps us less mechanically minded people so much also saves us a lot of money.

[@waynestefinashen239]

Extremely well put together step by step electrical tutorial that explains everything you need to know. You should get a raise!

[@donvoll2580]

Good day Wayne Boy you are right with that , he should have a raise. Thanks

[@moss8448]

I spent hrs on a Husky rider did all kinds of things then found it was a 20 amp fuse....when it was narrowed down to that it took a while to find the thing as the schematic is horrible. Just happened across it noticing a clip barely visible that held the housing. grrr

[@tortugabob]

The best lawnmower electrical troubleshooting video I have ever seen. Kudos.

[@EliminatorPerformance]

Cheers!

[@isdhound]

Yeah, what the electrical engineer said! I'm a dummy who always viewed electrical issues as magic. Thank you for taking the time to explain what each component does and how it functions.

[@hanzischultz9284]

Best instruction video on electrical diagnosis of riding lawnmower I have watched so far. Thank you!

[@490zack]

As someone who is terrible with electrical troubleshooting, this is by the far the simplest and easiest to understand guide I’ve seen to date. Thank you for making it so simple lol

[@razordu30]

Just wanted to add to the others and tell you what a great you've done with this video. I do a lot of my own repair work with everything from the battery and screen on my phones to the heater core on my car and this is propably the *best* problem troubleshooting tutorial I've seen. Seriously. You explain not just what you are doing well but also why. I've never known *why* you need to test car batteries under load but don't have to with my flashlights; now I do. Excellent work!

[@afigueroa3896]

Straight information, clear speaker with no additional nonsense. Excellent video bro.

[@EliminatorPerformance]

Thanks for watching!

[@duaneellen1889]

Excellent video in every aspect! Great planning. Great camera work, Clear and concise narrative. Absolutely one of the best instructional videas I've ever watched on KZbin. Screw lawnmowers. You should be making videos for a living!

[@elvinjonesjr4730]

I like your step by step teaching. I learn something’s. Thanks

[@gluemanred]

Great video!! I picked up the same mower a few days ago and the mower was slow to crank. The ground wire on the solenoid switch was melting the insulation off the wire too! Long story short; the previous owner had changed the solenoid but used a 4 post where the spade connectors were hot when the key was engaged. This video helped me realize there is a 4 post terminal with one being a ground!

[@teeithighandletitfly]

Just the most concise plain spoken video I've seen on KZbin and needing plenty of help I've watch hundred's. You'd be great in a college class sending young people into the world with knowledge that they could earn a living with. Bravo Sir!

[@EliminatorPerformance]

Thanks for the kind words Clay!

[@ronsper]

Brilliant vid. Great shots, angles and lighting. Everything explained without skipping over things. After 3 days of a KZbin crash course on rideon mower electrics, this vid helped me solve my issue. You are a legend in the KZbin Community, many thanks.

Great video. Never used a multimeater before and followed your step by step instructions to solve a Kawasaki equipped riding zero turn lawn mower lawnmower engine no start problem. Keep up the good work. George

[@SCHNEIDER2862]

Thank you so very much for your videos. they are very helpful.. maybe one comment you could make is before troubleshooting your starting problems; make sure that your blade is not engaged!!!!!!!🤣😂 No kidding!!! i watched both of your videos. PULLED my solenoid and tested it as per your instructions and all was good.... Followed the white wire from the solenoid to the cut off switch at the blade engage lever and from that position, my face was half in the engine compartment and I looked at the switch and at the same time my eyes moved up and seen that the blade was still engaged!!!!😆😆 The last time I cut the lawn it started poring rain and I drove it up and shut it off quick, never realizing that the blades where still engaged!!! The next time I tried to start it it wouldn't.. Never even thought to notice that the blades where still engaged!!🤣😂🤣😂 Thank you so much for the informative video!!🤣😂🤣

[@StillWildBand]

Brilliant Video my lawnmower has an electric issue. I will update tomorrow to see if I can finally find the problem

[@josephgiustiniani2834]

WOW. Great info. From the battery to the starter. Tests all the way. Thanks for explaining each step.

[@j.dragon651]

Best video so far. Working on a friends. Haven't done mechanic work in ages. My friend has no clue how to use a meter. He replaced the ignition switch with one from another mower, that one may be bad. He put in a new solenoid and a new starter, still no go. So now he has called me. I replaced the battery with a brand new one I bought for my mower that I know is good. Did some of these tests but not all. I will have to get back up there to complete these tests. I needed a refresher lol. If all tests good, it is on to your next videos to check the safety switches. You didn't mention the safety switch under the seat. There is also one on the shift lever that I will need to test. It is a Husqvarna. It shows in the wire diagram of the owners manual that there is a 20 amp fuse under the hood but I could not find it. I will have to look more. It may be just a generic manual and it is somewhere else? Thanx J.D.

[@EliminatorPerformance]

Reason I didn't do seat switch is because there are many different kinds. Some craftsman ones are similar to the brake switch, so you can watch that video and it'll show you it's a connector on 1 side and a circuit breaker on the other.

[@j.dragon651]

@@EliminatorPerformance Thank you. First I have to finish all the tests shown in this video and find that god darned fuse.

[@EnriqueReyesJrREALTOR]

Very good step by step diagnosis instructions. Keep up the good work.

[@samcallahan5077]

Thanks a bunch. I've Been searching for clear mower electrical info - you nailed it. You've got me as a long term subscriber.

[@rvalens2]

AMAZING teaching job! You not only taught me how to troubleshoot my mower, you also explained to me the various parts of the mower, what they do, how they interconnect, and how to use my multi-meter. Your videos are so clear and concise, it's easy to follow along and learn. I wish I had found your channel sooner. Unfortunately, I have yet to solve the problem of why my mower turns over, but won't start. But I have no doubt that with your help I'm going to figure it out. I'm going to spend the afternoon perusing your videos for an answer to my problem. I'm beginning to suspect that I may have a bad wire leading to the magneto or perhaps the magneto itself is bad. (It's old.) I think the easiest way to do that would be check to see if a spark is being provided to the plug by pulling its boot back while the engine is being cranked. It has a new spark plug, it's getting gas, and the carburetor was rebuilt by lawn mower a mechanic two years ago. The only other thing I can think of is perhaps the engine is flooding or the timing is off due to a broken key in the flywheel.

[@EliminatorPerformance]

Thanks for the kind words, yes definitely test for spark 1st, then spray some carb cleaner in and turn it over and see if it fires up. If it does and then it shuts off, it probably isn't getting fuel

[@fredtorres7363]

Excellent video on this topic

[@anthonybello9359]

I just wanted to say Thanks!!! I didn’t have a problem troubleshooting an electrical problem on the Abrams Tanks I worked on for years, but for some reason? I was intimidated by my Badboy Mower, maybe the name? Idk. But thanks to your helpful walk through? I was able to locate the problem & figure out the root cause of the issue.. Which, was a little different than your problem here, so I’ll explain what I went through to help anyone else in my shoes. Symptom: No response when I turned the key, no solenoid click, nothing. It gave out after 3 hours of cutting grass on a hot day, going down a hill. At first I thought it needed fuel because it was low, added fuel, then checked engine oil.. No, nothing. Started at the battery which was good & well connected, tested the ground which had voltage going through the frame. But because I wasn’t getting any type of power response? I immediately thought it was a safety switch acting up, so I tested each one, but they were all good. So, went back the battery, checked the solenoid, & it was getting power to it, but not across it. So when I tested the started side of the solenoid, & turned the key? Nothing. Instead of following my gut, I tested the ignition switch which was great to learn, but nothing.. The switch was working fine, but while I had the switch off? I decided to test the wire, & I was only getting 3.03 volts coming to the switch. When I traced it backwards, it lead me right to the 25amp wide blade fuse on my mower. After seeing that the fuse from the solenoid was blown, a quick run to the store, & $3 dollars later? It was running again, but I noticed the throttle cable was stuck in the full open position, maxing out the rpm’s. Apparently the plastic melted around it? So once that was fixed, it was running back to normal. Thanks again, for all your help. Every video I watched from the switches to the solenoid were all yours, so thanks man! You saved us a ton of money over a $1.50 part.

[@gatekeeper65]

Excellent video. Your presentation of proper troubleshooting procedures is awesome. This is one of the most informative videos I've seen on the structure of, and troubleshooting of electrical systems. Subscribed.

[@garysharits4020]

I’ll give you a “thumbs up” for sure as almost everything is correct and you were pretty thorough. However, continuity testing alone is not sufficient when testing a cranking (or any other higher amperage) circuit. The reason is simple, a cable with broken strands may show perfect continuity, but cannot deliver the amperage necessary to operate the circuit properly. The way to test for this possibility is to dynamically test the circuit by checking for voltage drops while the circuit is loaded (being operated). In this instance, you would put one side of the volt meter (properly set for the voltage expected) on the positive battery post (not at the cable) and the other side at the starter cable lug (when checking the positive side) or the negative battery post and the case of the starter itself. By turning the key and loading the circuit while monitoring the voltage, you would’ve seen that the starter was properly grounded, but wasn’t getting any power at all. With one simple test, you would’ve eliminated the entire ground circuit and narrowed the problem to the positive side. In this case, the next place to look would’ve been to check the larger cable connections at the solenoid and you would’ve easily found that the loss was inside the solenoid itself. As far as checking the primary side of the solenoid, since you could hear the actual solenoid heavy “click” of the solenoid when the key was turned, you would know that the solenoid was moving, but since it wasn’t delivering the power necessary, it was failing internally. One other point, I know that the solenoids might corrode as well, but the main problem I’ve seen is that the internal contacts get burned due to excessive amperage draw in the circuit. Very often when that is the case, the starter is the root cause as when the starter draws excessive amperage, it will cause the solenoid contacts to burn. This would necessitate replacement of both the starter and the solenoid to correct the condition. Regardless of my comments, I believe that you did a good job overall and that anyone following your testing recommendations would almost always find their specific problem. I would personally recommend that you start doing the dynamic voltage drop testing to eliminate the possibility of any erroneous electrical diagnosis.

[@harrisonkane1288]

I was going to say something similar

[@warick1959]

Brilliant narrative, you got me out trouble 👏👍🇬🇧

[@Larry-d3i]

Outstanding job of troubleshooting. I have 3 older mowers, one is a Cub Cadet that has always been plagued with electrical problems. I plan to re wire is without all the safety switches and your video will help me do that I feel sure. The ignition switch has been replaced, now has failed again, and the PTO clutch sometimes works, sometimes does not and I suspect a bad ground or a bad safety switch. Also, I was able to cure a no crank condition on my farm tractor by doing what you did. Bad connection at the starter. The voltage was there, but a corroded connection was blocking the current.

Awesome step by step. I had done some disassembly to repair a serious gas leak which turned out to be a disconnected hose that must have vibrated loose from a poor connection. Put it all back together and not even a click. I suspected the seat safety switch because that’s the only electrical I touched. According to your protocol I got a bad read on the ground wire from battery! Why now? Was starting fine prior to disassembly. Anyway, back to cleaning and/or removing cable after a break. 19.5 hp Twin Craftsman. Thx.

A Great video.. I've had a starting problem with my Hustler 54" Fastrak for months & I initially thought it was a bad ground because the 3 pole solenoid is bolted to a powder coated frame but thanks to your video it appears to be a faulty solenoid. It clicks when powered but no power when testing the starter side of the solenoid.

You can test a fuse without pulling it out by taking you positive lead and touch the top of the fuse on the left then right side. Look close at the fuse on top ,you will see the post to test it. Great Video. Well done.
