Hi gang.
Been mowing along with no troubles so far this season... however the last couple of times I noticed the battery light coming on & staying on. The battery was just replaced mid-summer last year, so I doubt that it has gone south already. When I climbed on tonight to mow, it wouldn't start. It turns over but I am getting a clicking noise from the starter (I think) at the same time, and it won't crank quickly enough to catch and run. I unhooked the 'Hopper battery and went directly off my Jeep battery - same results. :-(
Before I pull the deck and haul it to the dealer for a pricey service call does anyone have any thoughts or ideas as to what may be happening? BTW, I don't have a meter or other diagnostic doo-dads to check the electrical/charging system. Any help is greatly appreciated!!!
TIA
