John Deere LA120 Won't Start! Won't Crank! Just Clicks!

[@brianfitzgerald3467]

reminds me of certain '72 Lemans I once knew

[@stevescabin5441]

71 .... LeMans Sport! with the endura option! At least that ran. That was another confusing issue.

Yay! Success!

I have several mowers and one is a Deere that won’t start. Hmmmmm I think I’ll follow your troubleshooting and see if I have the same success. Thanks for the video 😃

It's just a matter of one thing at a time - slow and easy. Often it's something simple. ... like a loose ground!

See if there's a bolt missing on the engine somewhere. The second ground might've gone there. Also, make sure the parking brake is set before getting off the seat, that'll typically allow it to stay running as long as the cutting blades are disengaged.

Thanks! I'll try that with the parking brake!

[@guckmaschine]

If you engage the parking brake, you can get off the seat.

[@stevescabin5441]

Yes! I discovered the locking tab a couple of months ago and have been using it now.

very informative video. Lots of repair videos on your channel, Are you up for a collaboration? Hipa supplies parts for small engines and maybe we would work together to help more people in the community.

Thank you for reaching out. I really don't do a lot of small engine repair videos. I appreciate the offer but I think I would be a waste of your time. Should I start doing more I will definitely reach out. Thanks again!
