tom woods 1 #1 Posted July 7, 2021 Good day members. Problem just started with my 212-H. While mowing the engine quit. I disengaged the PTO and it started and run good but when engaging the PTO again it stalled. I've traced the diagram and checked the starting relay and the seat safety switch and they work properly. With the engine off I engage the PTO and the clutch engages but when I start the engine then the PTO it stops. All wires and connections and fuses are sound. What am I missing?. Thanks Tom Woods Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 43,361 #2 Posted July 7, 2021 You may have a short to ground that's killing the ign circuit with the PTO on. I know the 210 was a magneto engine. Not sure on the 12 horser. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SPINJIM 1,984 #3 Posted July 7, 2021 Sounds like the seat switch circuit. If the switch checks out, look at the wire leading to it for a short to ground. Good luck, Jim 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
