Dirtdog524 61 #1 Posted August 25, 2014 MY trusty wheel horse 314-8 ( 3901450) just shut off like i turned the key switch off while mowing. I restarted the tractor and noticed that my voltage gauge was in the total negative area. Checked the battery (while running and it was at 13.2 volts) . Tried to engage the mower deck and it just dies . The tractor will run fine until i engage the mower deck and then it is just like turning the key off. Where would you start with to fix this problem?

Racinbob 10,370 #3 Posted August 25, 2014 I would check the seat switch first. Then go to the PTO switch. From the info so far I would definitely lean towards the seat switch. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WH nut 553 #4 Posted August 26, 2014 Seat switch. Make sure it didn't come unplugged and make sure the seat frame contacts the plunger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
