Glad you enjoyed it

I’m surprised this came with all of the hardware. Typically this parts make you reuse the old ones.

[@uggaduggabois]

Yes, it was nice that it came with everything I needed and even better it actually fit and bolted right on without and adjustments!

Just wondered why you didn’t that cover off an make it easier. Thanks

Hi, I have a similar tractor with a starting problem. Can you tell me the kind the issue I would have if this part is bad? What exactly does this relay do? When I try to start my 3020 I mainly get clicking which I assume is a solenoid issue. What issue(s) were you experiencing that led to replacing this part and eventually the starter?

[@uggaduggabois]

We also,at times had a clicking sound. Other times the starter would not turn over fast enough to start the tractor in cold weather. I would advise first check to make sure your batteries are good along with your main battery lines and that you have a good ground. We we replaced the relay in we didn't noticed a change which lead to us changing the battery cabels and finally the starter. The new starter we put on also is rated to spin fast and now she starts almost instantly no matter the temperature.
