Could the PTO switch ground itself via internal short and still show from the multimeter that it is in working condition? (via continuity) Also when I try to engage the blades the blades start to move but the motor just turns off.
I have a new ignition switch. 15 and 16 is the blade engage switch I have pulled it and tested it and it works so there must be something electrical as you stated.
So I took the belt off and engine still turned off. I tested the clutch sensor and the blade sensor, both of them work (have continuity). And the seat safety switch I bypassed.
I will try the governor arm next.
Just finally got my older Murray back to working order, but when I engage the blades the engine stalls. Any ideas why? I originally bypassed the seat switch so that is not even an issue at this point. Any direction would be helpful. Thanks
So I did check voltage on battery when I turned it over and it was only 6volts also. The solenoid was brand new and it was a new battery also. Once I saw 6volts when the key was turned i went and got a new battery again thinking that one was just faulty. It is fixed and honestly I don't know...
I am having similar issues but on the fourth checkpoint I am only getting 6 volts at the second terminal going to started and starter only has the same amount of volts. Where am I losing the voltage from? I have taken and cleaned all of the ground wires. Thanks for your help. This has been...
