So i have a weird problem with this mower it’s a 2018 bronco with a briggs 19.5 HP. I tried to start it and everything was normal except that the starter kept on moving even after turning the key switch off. So i had to quickly disconnect the battery to make it stop.

I’m thinking it’s the solenoid that’s stuck ?? I replaced the key switch with another known good one and that didn’t fix. Starter is also new and that wasn’t it as well.

Any ideas?

I will post model number if needed

What you describe is typical stuck starter solenoid. Replace the solenoid and retest.
Yes that’s what i was thinking it would be i’ll make sure to replace it
