Hi,
I have a 2014 Scag Cheetah which won't even crank. All safety cut outs appear to be ok but, in checking forums, it seemed to me the problem may have been Relay 483013 near the choke control or maybe the Electronic Control 483599. However I've replaced these and the Scag still won't crank.
In one post "2004 Scag Tiger cub 48" won't start/won't crank" it states attaching a wire from the battery earth to the Relay will bypass the safety checks and allows the Scag to start. This works fine on my machine however, as soon as I release the brake or move a steering arm or start the cutting deck, the motor cuts out.
Does anyone know, precicly, what the Electronic Control checks to make sure the mower is good to go. Clearly something electrical isn't right but I've no idea how to fault find the issue.
TIA - Peter
