312-8 nothing happens when trying to crank.

I am wondering the best approach to determine why my WH won't start. I replaced battery to start with but nothing. Even when I turn the key and touch the solinoid with a screw driver, nothing. I am thinking it is probably in the switch or solinoid but wasn't sure which route to try first.

What is the model number and serial number of your tractor?

 

With those the correct wiring diagrams and a test light or voltmeter should locate the problem.

Is the PTO off? Is the clutch pushed down? Is the polarity of the battery correct.

I will clean all the connections when I get home this evening and see what happens.

Do you have a volt meter?  Tracing your power from the battery and tracing your grounds, look to where you lose it and report back. :handgestures-thumbupright:

I got er going. It fired up after I brushed off the battery and the cable ends. Thanks for the reminder to have clean battery terminals.
