Probably easier to update everyone in one post. Left the battery on the charger overnight and it was at 12 volts. I just put it on and started the mower and it is now charging at 13 volts, so I am assuming that was the issue after changing stator and vr because it was at 10 volts then and I...

I checked both and torque is still at 60lbs and key is good. I think I was misleading on the backfiring. It only backfires when I turn it off sometimes. When it's running it will occasionally sputter or surge. It hasn't done that since I changed the coils and plugs. It did however backfire...

ok. I will throw it on the charger again. Appreciate it.

It does not have the ammeter on the dash. In order to check the stator output, would I just unplug the wire from the stator and place the multimeter leads inline to measure the amps while it is running? I have double yellow wires coming from the stator, does it matter which wire I choose, or...

Everything looked normal or at least factory. I've never pulled the flywheel in 13 years and it's never been to the shop for that type of maintenance that required pulling the flywheel, so as far as I know the magnets are attached the same as when they left the factory. Nothing felt loose when...

I just remembered that when I removed the flywheel to replace the stator, it was packed with dirt and grass between all the magnets. I took the compressor and a brass bristle brush and got all the dirt removed, but could that cause issues later on? The magnets seemed strong and had a lot of...

Our local shop is who I called first and they were having issues at the time with availability on the parts. I didn't know if that was because of the age of the mower or just a stocking issue in general from their supplier, so I broke down and searched on Amazon. I justified the Amazon...

backfiring from the muffler. And it's only backfiring when the battery voltage gets low so I am assuming that's a firing issue with the coils and the lack of power from the stator and vr? I torqued the flywheel bolt to 60 ft lbs.

Yeah, I'm thinking that could very well be some of the problem. You know how it is, they can get the parts the next day so it seems like a great deal. I should know better by now. Is there a place you recommend? Should I just buy from Ariens directly? I've called the place I bought it from...

I will check them again. I've only checked battery ground and cleaned where the voltage regulator bolts to the engine. I will take it to a shop if we can't figure it out on this forum, which is what I was hoping for when I posted. I suppose listing the parts I've replaced wasn't the...

Model # 93605300/A22H46 Serial # 013012A008475 And regarding the blades disengaging in reverse, I know that is a safety feature, was just pointing out that when I replaced the ignition switch the position to keep the blades engaged changed. Didn't know if that might contribute to an...

Good evening. I am at a loss. I would like to begin by saying that automotive electrical is not my best subject. I try, but I end up with a mess usually, or I feel like everything works against me to create unique and unheard of issues. All that to say I need major help. I will try to cover...

Good evening, everyone. Proud owner of a 2013 Ariens Hydro 46' mower with the 22hp Briggs and Stratton Intex Vtwin engine. Don't have a picture of the mower, but she has been a great mower through the years. She mows an acre just about every week during the growing season and then pulls a...
