Toolmanbill 19 #1 Posted October 28, 2022 Hi guys.still having electrical issues.replaced both pto switches and everything seemed fine for 2days then issues started happening again.very difficult time starting but once it did even without the pto engaged soon as I got off the seat the motor shut off.finally started it and started to mow and everything seemed ok but I didn’t get off the seat and lasted about an hour and a half.had to get off and the motor shut off.went back out to finish and now there seems to be no battery power.the motor won’t crank the idiot lights won’t light.looking at the wiring diagram could it be the seat relay(not the switch)?and could anyone tell me where that is?also the oil level relay? model 73400 serial 4901795 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldlineman 1,450 #2 Posted October 28, 2022 Using the wiring diagrams here, you just have to chase the voltage from the battery through the switch to the starter. Not that hard, I did it several months ago and was very east. Need a 12V test light or a voltmeter,I find a test light works better for me. Bob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peter lena 8,072 #4 Posted October 29, 2022 @Toolmanbill take advantage of what works , and go from there , agree with test light , and fuse check / corrosive areas. could easily have a safety switch issue , , cracked powdery connections , the fact that you run , and then fail suggests connection fault issues . this is not a 1 and done fix , its a collective wire / switch / connection issue . after starting , while running , move some connections , what makes it quit? probable have multiple shut down spots . have any ALLIGATOR CLIP TEST WIRES ? used those on my horses to make things work , pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
