Hi Guys,
I have a 98 Lazer Z that wont engage blades after use. I can mow for an hour or so and deck clutch solenoid works fine. I can start and stop the deck with no problem. However, after a good warmup the deck becomes intermittent. When I pull the switch I can hear a slight noise like its trying but will not engage. If I turn the mower off and let it cool down everything starts working again. I replaced the push/pull switch thinking bad connection but did not fix it. Acts like the coil in the solenoid is weak. Is that possible? Has anyone had a similar experience?
