I have a 2011 Craftsman PYT9000 Model# 247.288881
1. The fuse located near the solenoid blew 2 times when I stopped the mower to empty the grass bins. I replaced fuse.
2. Then the engine made no sound when attempting to start.
3. Replaced solenoid and ignition switch. Now the headlights and readout on ignition panel come on.
4. Still no sound from engine.
5. I put a screwdriver across the posts on solenoid and starter motor made cranking sound so not a starter motor problem
6. Also drained a brand new battery overnight two times.
Any ideas Myfrens??
