2016 ZRT L 46" Feb Deck with 123 hours and never a problem. Mower started mow my yard. Turn off to clean mower try to start again nothing like battery dead but the battery is good. At time I see a 13 on the hour meter and also a low oil pressure come on but not all the time. That said I check oil level good. So thinking it's acting like a safety switch problem, not letting it start. I checked all three switches two interlocking switches for the handles and the seat switch. NO & NC all three good. Pull PTO and ignition switches both good readings. Put it all back together started it up run like new. Parked it in my workshop. Retuned to use mower again and NOTHERING whatsoever and the only thing I see is the 13 and low oil pressure. I'm lost in the soup, could it be something is causing this because it's getting hot maybe.

First thing to check are the battery cables, making sure they are clean and tight. Especially the ground to chassis connection.
