I have a HRX2173HZA (MAGA - 2077102) which I bought new in 2013 (May I think).
I thought it was the current model at the time.
I remember at the time reading references to some but not all of these actually charged the battery while running and am wondering it this one does. (Or even if that was ever true). I've been doing some lurking and read references to "early" and "late" battery compartments and this one appears to have the "early" style. (Held together by clips).
A couple of weeks back when I went to start it the starter would just whirr and not turn the engine, fired right up with the recoil starter and only did it one other time that mowing session, it has not done it again since. I did charge the battery thinking perhaps it was weak. I'm reluctant to take it to the dealer since it seems unlikely to act up on them. Any ideas for things to check?
Edit: I guess I really didn't have any other questions right now any way...
