whorsetractor426 0 #1 Posted February 16, 2014 I have a 314-8 and it runs great but while blowing snow I shut it off. it won't start now. Anyone know what it may be? Not sure if its a safety switch? Lights go on but nothing happens? thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ARK 9 #5 Posted February 18, 2014 All interlocks must be made. Check the ignition switch, then the stater relay, then the starter, but first verify the battery and its level and all wires and cables. AND ALL GROUNDS, CONNECTIONS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WH nut 553 #6 Posted February 18, 2014 (edited) Check the connection on the ignition switch Edited February 18, 2014 by WH nut Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leeave96 487 #7 Posted February 18, 2014 One of your safeties might have gotten wet and once things dry out you would be good. To start, there must be weight on the seat, clutch and break depressed and PTO disengaged. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whorsetractor426 0 #8 Posted February 19, 2014 thank you guys.. Its been in warm garage for 2 weeks and no luck. I did find a small 2" x 2" piece of plastic where the shifter is? No sure if its a safety or something that broke? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ericj 1,576 #9 Posted February 19, 2014 i haven't driven my 99 314-8 for several months now but i'm pretty sure it has a safety switch that won't allow it to start in gear. maybe your switch feel off or broke ? fine where it went and jump the wires or replace the switch eric j Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No sure if its a safety or something that broke? What is the model number and serial number of your tractor? We should be able to find the appropriate wiring diagram with those numbers. Do you have a test light or a voltmeter for testing? Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
