LT1500 wont start

[vtrwillie]

Hey guys,
I have a Craftsman LT1500 that wont start, and by meaning it wont start it wont crank. The battery is only about 3-4 months old and has a good charge on it. When I turn the key to crank it over I get a clicking (like the starter solenoid engaging) from under seat. I didn't have time last night to tear into but wanted some input on what to look for. The mower is 6 years old.

Thanks

Check the battery voltage even though its new, should be at least 12.2 to 12.5 volts. also check that your ground cable is tight on the battery and to where it grounds to.
Could also be a bad starter solenoid...
Post the model number from under the seat.. usually on a white sticker...
