    Ok. The ground is good and the solenoid is new. I am sure the original problem I was having was due to a bad adjustment on safety switch (tall steering handle.) The testing went horribly wrong and I jumped 12 volts to the wrong wire and now the mower will not make the thump sound when I turn...

    Husqvarna Z 246 (no start)

    I have been trying to fix my neighbor's Husqvarna riding mower. The mower did not start last summer. He changed 3 safety switches, the starter and the solenoid, but the mower will not start. The front light will come and the hours are displayed, but that is it. I pulled on the belt and the blade...
