that rapid clicking is a dead or low battery.. put it on a charger until it gets to about 12.8 volts (if you have a multimeter to check it with), if not just leave it charging for 5-8 hours. that usually gets mine charged up.

He has a link to a video of it.
OK thanks, a picture(video) is worth a thousand words :wink:
I had a similar problem with my Craftsman Riding where I had a new battery that would not stay charged. I kept messing with the electrical connectors until
it started working and staying charged. It was a bad ground clamp right below the solenoid switch was not making connection to the frame.
Of course that may not be your problem at all but a similar result. Bob
