Good morning guys,
Went out the other morning to start the mower after having it sit all winter long (short winter here in South Carolina) an the thing wouldn't do a thing, I mean a thing. I Raised the seat, hooked up the battery charger and let it charge for a while. Came back and the finish light was on so I removed everything, jumped on the mower and nothing, not even a "click". So I thought that maybe the battery cable connections could be bad so I too the apart and brushed them with a wire brush, reassembled and sprayed with battery terminal protectant. The question now is what is going on? I have never had any electrical problems with this mower. It has always be a get on and fire right up mower no mater how long it sits up 2 day, 2 weeks, 4 months.
thanks for your help in advance,
Mike

Find the ground wire from battery to body of mower and disconnect it then clean it up and reattach.
