Welcome to the LMF lefty...

I'm sure this will be moved to a better place than New Members ....but if you have been feeding a short 200 amps... your trouble shooting should be easy... replace the burnt up bits and the n repair the short... 'There is nothing on any engine that will stand that much current without going up in smoke...

What white wire are you referring to??? :smile:KennyV

I don't think there is anything else I could add to what Kenny said to you...

Just replace the shorted bits!

Oh, and welcome to LMF! :smile:

Hey there! WELCOME to LawnMowerForum! :biggrin:

I moved your thread to the Small Engine & Mower Repair Forum. You'll get a better response there. :thumbsup:
