After starting perfectly first time after the winter, after I stopped the engine after the first grass box fill up, I can’t get my mower restarted.
Maybe I’m doing something daft having forgotten something after not using it for months, or maybe a connection has rattled off or something has broken with vibration on use.
The battery is fully charged. The fuse is working. When I test with a multimeter power is getting to the fuse with the ignition on. There is no power to the starter motor when I turn the key to start. (No headlights either when I turn on the switch). No click or response from the starter motor when I turn the key to start position.
Any suggestions on where to look?
The only oddity I found was a hanging connector under the steering wheel housing with blue and black wires, but no obvious connector to attach it to, and when I look online for a wiring diagram there’s mention of an optional power socket (which I don’t have) being connected by blue black wires, so assume that’s a red herring.
The only tip in the manual is “fuse” - which is working fine.
