I am seeking some advice regarding the starting problem on my HRR2169VLA, Serial Number MZCG-8825154. The electric start is not working. Here is what I have done:
Fully charged the battery (reading 13.09 volts on multimeter)
Replaced all fuses twice and again checked each one with multimeter to see if complete circuit and they are fine
Bypassed all switches and connected battery to the two terminals on the starter; it started quickly using this method.
I have concluded that it is either a starter switch problem and/or a wiring harness problem.
While it does start easily with the pull-cord, I would like to use the electric start since I developed “tennis elbow” making pulling the starter rope somewhat painful.
Any suggestions to tracing the problem before starting to put parts on the starting assembly that is not needed?
