Hi, Star Teck. The wiring diag is a great help, which i can use if future issues arise should an electrical problem occur. You've put my mind at rest regarding the Voltage regulator. I have just measured the voltage across the batt terminals with ignition OFF and key removed, fully connected...

I was going to measure the voltage with the power applied. I'm using a cheap bog standard 600V AC/DC Manual Ranging Digital Multimeter which I've had for 25 years. Thanks Jeff

thanks for the reply to my post. The body of the Voltage regulator is mounted on a non grounded surface. a separate black 'ground' wire is attached to the body of the regulator and back to the chassis I changed the old regulator because it was showing 2.65V between the regulator metal body and...

Thank you to all three. I will test the current drain when i get the opportunity and also the voltage at the battery terminals after a week with the machine standing idle. I 'll post the result when i get it, It would also be a simple fix to put a spst switch in line with the earth ground wire...

I have just replaced my old Voltage regulator with a new replacement, and on checking the earth connection from the regulator metal body( it's mounted on the plastic shield supporting the oil dip stick) back to the Ground there is a voltage leak of 0.26v when the motor is switched off and key...

Mark, Thanks for your advice, it turned out to be a faulty micro switch under the seat. Engine now starts. However, if i can dare to ask another question; I replaced my old Voltage regulator with a new one, and on checking the earth connection from the regulator back to the Ground there is a...

Hoping someone out there can help me get back to cutting my grass. I have just replaced the starter motor and starter solenoid on my ride on mower complete with a new battery. When i switch on the ignition the light comes on the when i start the engine nothing happens. Keeping the switch fully...
