Hello all! I have a bit of a conundrum...help?
I have a question. My son (he's learning) went to replace the starter solenoid and did not make note of how the wiring connected. I replaced the entire harness because he connected the single black wire to the positive, and well...Anyhow,
My RZ5424 does not have lights. My unit came with 2 battery pos (one to the solenoid and from there to starter) and the battery neg connected to the other solenoid stud. On the harness, (together in one offshoot) there is the yellow wire to the solenoid tang, the red lead to battery + lead...and then there is a single black wire. it reads 12.34v when the battery is connected, but it sure does not go to the solenoid or the engine ground. The Husqvarna schematic was not updated when the harness was. Does anyone know where that black wire is supposed to go?
Before he fried the harness, I taped off the black wire and it started.
I have also replaced all switches (except the steering interlocks) plugs and both coils. BUT something must be open...somewhere. I get no click, nothing whatsoever. When I replaced the coils this morning, I cleaned the pick-up and made sure the coils were the correct spacing, and I can turn the engine by hand. I have been doing electrical work for 20 years (we have a 73 MCI bus that is a home on wheels) but I am stumped on this.
