After reading all the comments I discovered 2 other guys had the same problem. My battery was fully charged, and was good after putting a load on it at the parts store. It needed a booster to start for some reason, but when it started I got so excited I mowed my yard of 2+ acres. Im a new subscriber and thank you for the video.

Good troubleshooting procedure. I was hearing a click, but like a small relay. Found out that was the fuel cutoff solenoid by the carburetor. When in the start position, only ~5.5volts at the battery. Somewhat similar to this situation, It was the positive cable to the battery wasn't tight. It stated a few times after re-installing the battery in the spring, I guess after a few mows that loosened the connection.

Thank you! I have a 1998 mtd Ranchking 16.5hp opposed twin I bought used. I just about changed everything on my mower to finally get it running the last thing I did was change both battery terminals and put a new starter on it (my solenoid was clicking too but wasn't cranking)...also my heads were flooded so I pulled sparks out, flamed up the chamber to get it dry, slapped the spark plugs back in and it finally got going. I also had to adjust the idle on the carb to get it running stronger, because it used to die out when mowing sometimes. Also of note, just to provide yall with as much info as I can, I put new battery, new spark plugs, new magneto, new fuel lines/filter, new engine oil. I took the heads off and sanded off all of the carbon buildup on them and the pistons, also threw some seafoam in there for good measure. I also attached a new solenoid. Just about the only thing decent on it was one of the belts and the blades are still good. I'll be getting 2 new tires for it soon as well.

My Craftsman GTS 5000 had a similar problem. Turned out to be the brake switch. I spent a great deal of time replacing it. When I do maintenance on the mower, I make sure to remove any corrosion from all of the terminals. After that, I spray CRC Battery Terminal Protector on all the terminals. A great tip of yours is to remove the paint from any ground wires connected to the frame. Sometimes the problem will be a buildup of rust.

You just saved me some time. I was about to pull the pressure switches out from the deck and brake to check them but I do hear the solenoid clicking so that means power is getting through both and the ignition is working. It makes sense the pressure switches need to be before the solenoid, not sure why that didn't occur to me, probably more just frustration getting to me. I can start it right up from a jump box on the starter so I'm thinking its probably just a bad contact from the battery I need to clean up. Great video.

Recharging the battery didn't solve the problem. After seeing this and checking everything I became suspect of the battery. Toro supplied a 195 cranking amp battery. Other blogs indicate this is way too low. I bought a 340 and the machine fires up immediately every time. Easy fix after a lot of needless worry. Shame on Toro for supplying such a weak battery,

There's a stator on these motors also that puts out between 20 and 40 volts, and a voltage regulator that drops it down around 14 volts. One last check I would have done on this is to put a volt meter on the battery while the engine is running to be sure you see around 14 volts while the engine is running. This confirms that the charging system is working to keep the battery charged. Otherwise, repeated starts will eventually deplete the battery. Also, for mowers that have an electric PTO clutch, having the blades engaged puts a load on the battery, which will also deplete it if the charging system isn't working. I'm just adding this point because one question I would have after all the diagnostics is, why was the battery all the way down to 7 volts? It could just be because the battery is old, was sitting all winter, etc., but I would want to be sure that the charging system is working. When the mower is off, you'll see 12.8 volts nominally on the battery; 14 when the mower is running. If you don't see that 14 volts, then something is up w/ the charging system. That's when it's time to check the voltage coming off of the stator, and if you have a voltage there, then diagnose the voltage regulator. On some machines, these may be all-in-one. This was a great video.

I'm a 20+ year electrician and a 10+ year home business small engine mechanic. So, this is my advice on testing this type of issue... When you test, always put your tester ground directly to the battery. That way you eliminate a bad ground from your testing. If you get power to the starter with the ground on the battery, that tells you your entire positive side of the circuit is good. At that point you could move your tester ground to the engine (where you started), if you get zero or any voltage lower than what your battery voltage is, then you know there is a bad ground. I've had several issues with bad ground from the battery to the frame strap. Testing using the battery as your ground allows you to more accurately isolate the issue. Also, never trust the thread of the bolt as your ground. Threads get painted and also allow for oxidation. Always, always, always clean the metal pieces with a grinder, sander, wire wheel, etc... so there is a good clean connection from the wire directly to bare metal. A three post solenoid can give you different results if there is not a good ground at the base plate of the solenoid. In that case there won't be any noise from the solenoid because the control circuit of the solenoid won't get voltage due to the ground. In this case test for voltage from the neg. battery post to the control post/wire of the solenoid. If you get voltage there but not from the ground strap on the solenoid to the control post then.the ground is bad on the solenoid strap. Electricity is hard to see, unless you blow it up. Lol.

Finally fixed. My solenoid would click rapidly when turning over. My starter motor was getting 12v but wouldn't turn the flywheel even when attached directly to battery, but I could hand turn the engine pretty easily. Turns out I got a new sparkplug with my carburetor kit and installed a plug that was too short. It caused more air to be allowed into the cylinder. When my starter motor would try to turn the flywheel, it couldn't overcome the increased compression and would draw too much voltage causing a voltage drop, which caused my solenoid to click rapidly.

Good advice, you sound Canadian. All it takes is an ohm or two of extra resistance in big cables like that, and power is robbed from the starter motor in line. Drop testing would have been fun to see before removing wires, though the lack of any voltage at all on the starter post in the beginning is strange. Do garden tractors and farm equipment usually have starter solenoids separate from the starter motor?

After making a couple test cuts, the mower made a grinding noise that wasn't there prior, and upon turning the key off it kept the starter powered. I expect the new key switch or the solenoid is wired differently than the original parts. The solenoids appear identical but the 5 pin key start assembly was different as far as the orientation of the connector. What do you think?

@@EliminatorPerformance You do a great job of explaining your troubleshooting and repair processes so I was surprised that you (after watching many of your vids) never mentioned the use of dielectric grease. You service and repair products that are used in an environment (outdoors) where rust and corrosion protection is important, (even on battery connections). Great work btw, I'm binge-watching and liking your content so if you have talked about it I haven't seen it yet.

Sir, I have a Sears lawn tractor, the shifter doesn't engage in gear, is there an adjustment on clutch?.

Well explained plan, I know everyone charges differently, but generally, what would you say a ballpark amount for what you did in this video would be charged, I'm having similar issues and don't have ALL the tools to do some of the work, just a. Close estimate, thanks for your time 🚜🚜👍😎

Helped me just figure out the wiring for a troybilt pony someone else tore apart for some reason. However, now the starter turns on right as you connect to the battery. So, new problem i guess. Ill figure it out.

I have a mower question. I put a new starter on my mower and a new solenoid but when the key is in the off position the starter kicks on and when the key is in the on position the starter kicks off. I thought I had the wires connected backwards but there's just a positive wire that goes from the solenoid to the starter. I've bought two different solenoids because I thought it was the wrong one but both of them did the same thing. What else could it be?
