Hello All,
I purchased a house that sits on one acre last September. Prior to that, I lived in a townhouse. So, I am still getting used to the repairs and upkeep of an older house on some land.
When we bought the house the previous owners were kind enough to leave a Craftsman ride on mower for us. From what my father in law tells me it is a 2004 with a "kohler" engine in it.
The mower has worked fantastic until last week. I just finished mowing the yard (it took me a little over an hour) on Saturday and when I was driving to put the mower in the garage it completely stopped. I tried to re-start it but when I turned the key, NOTHING happened. No clicking, no whirring, no activity on the gauges. It seems like it may be the battery since nothing is showing on the gauges (which are digital). However, I was driving all morning for over an hour with no problems. Would the battery just stop working when I was going to put it away? Maybe the alternator?
Any ideas you could provide would help me greatly.
Thank you in advance,
pepperjack
