Hello Friends-

I am in need of help!! My zero turn Ariens Ikon XD 52 won't start! It was working fine last weekend when I cut my lawn. I turn the key and it does nothing. I tried jump starting it and still does nothing. It doesn't even make a clicking sound. I thought it might the ignition switch so I bought one, replaced it and still nothing. I jumped the starter solenoid and still no response! It did not turn the starter. The handbrake is up, which is required to start it. Any suggestions are surely appreciated

I would start with checking the battery and/or charging it. If it didn't crank by jumping the starter solenoid I would be leaning toward dead battery.

Dead battery.
PTO switch is on.
Faulty safety switch.
Blown fuse.
Bad ground.

I have One of those portable jump starters. I tried it and it didn't crank. But I guess I didn't leave it on there long enough. I'm going to charge the battery all day tomorrow. Thanks for your suggestion.

Yeah I will try to charge the battery tomorrow.
PTO switch is not on. I made sure.
Fuse is not blown. I checked
I don't think it's a bad ground but I will triple check it.
Could be a faulty safety switch. Is there any way too bypass it just to test?

Check the wiring diagrams. You will need the model number and serial number to find them.
