Hey There,
Housemate has a John Deere L111. Wouldn't turn over unless jumped. New battery, got it moving, but blades won't engage. Tighten the belt cable, hoping to mow, now when I tried to turn over it won't, kept trying and now instead of clicking it's just a higher pitched spinning noise like something else really broke. Any idea where to begin? Any advice much appreciated!!!!
