Only stalls on a right turn but not a left. I'm presuming it's a loose belt but just a guess. Anyone know what's happening? Thanks Russ

Lift hood turn wheels to right and look for what is touching the steering linkage. Im betting it is a wire grounding out.

Thank you BlazNT for the help. I looked underneath and saw one wire severed and several others almost gone.... The wires weren't secured by the factory in a proper manner and were getting in the way of a slide fitting that was part of the turning system and also the forward pedal was chomping on the wires too. Also while I was there I brushed some grease on the slide fitting and now the steering wheel turns very smooth. I've read several complaints about hard steering and was ready to just accept the fact that it was very tough to turn. Thanks for directing me to an area of the machine that needs to be inspected and serviced often, and also thanks to all who answer these posts and share their hard earned experience with us new guys.... Russ
