I have a 250816BE with a wiring issue with the three wires near the starter. The two wires coming out near the top of the starter are red and black. I have a single white wire that connected to these wires(one or both). The plug was damaged when I bought the mower. Some one sent me a wiring schematic but I still couldn't tell how to hook these wires up.

Currently the red wire is hooked to the white wire and the black wire is just hanging(I did this and I believe it is wrong). The mower runs rough(when throttle is set high I am only getting about a third power and is maybe miss firing a bit).

I can send a picture if anyone is an expert at the wiring.

Thanks to everyone for all their help.

Jim, Snapper model numbers are either 7 or 9 numbers & letters combined, 250816be is 8, please include all numbers and letters. Thanks


Black/Red will go to ground, meaning chassis or engine block,etc., 1 white wire goes to brown wire & 1 white wire goes to yellow/black wire.

That is the model number on the mower and owners manual.
