C-81 (81-08K801) Wont Start

Recommended Posts

Good morning to all on a snowy day.

My problem is one that I've never hear about or seen posted about, so it might not familiar to most.

I turn the key and NOTHING! LOL

So, that's my sense of humor.

History, 1979 (Kohler K181S, PF30700D), restored by me and has been fine staring and now, nothing

 

I have reached out to the RS community in the past and your help has been tremendous. A few of you have asked me to post pictures but unfortunately all were lost due to the Blue Screen of Death Syndrome on that computer.

 

I will take any suggestions on what to check.

If there is an ammeter, check the connections.

As the others have said ammeter and seat or pto switch. If you know that the battery is good bypass the ammeter and  switchs with a jumper .

Here is the electrical diagram in the manual.
