Craftsman riding mower, after starting... wont turn off

[No_Smoking]

alright I finally got it to work.. looking at my second post, second picture, you can see a white wire on the right side, and the black ground wire (with a clear plastic covering) on the left side.. just swapping them worked. I can start and stop at will xD


Thanks for the help!=

As I read it all he did was replace the solenoid. If that is all he did, it would not effect any of the safety switches or ( a kill wire?) Shut off cuircut on tractors is through the magneto system and has nothing to do with the starting system. If he has a problem with shutting off the engine, then he has changed some of the magneto circuit wiring.

Please disregard. I didn't see page 2 of replies which indicates the problem is solved and how.
