Hello, so I am having a issue with my Husqvarna mower
My battery died the end of last season so I got a new one in the spring, changed out for the old one, mower started up just fine so I went to go cut my grass and got about 60 feet when the wheels stopped turning. turns out a pulley locked up and the belt grinded it apart then fell off. so I pushed it back to the garage, ordered in a new pulley, and replaced it.
after replacing the pulley the mower wouldn't turn on, turn the key and nothing, engine wont even try and turn over, no clicking, nothing. if I pull the switch the engage the blades I hear a clunking noise so power is getting somewhere (it wont do it without the battery connected or key in) so I talked to the small engine repair place in the next town over and they tested my battery and deemed it perfect. they then suggested I may have a bad solenoid, so I bought a new one and changed it out. no change, still nothing whatsoever happens when I turn the key.
any suggestions where I could start my troubleshooting? I cant even bring the mower in anywhere because I loaned my trailer to my mother for a few weeks while she went up north, so I have no way to move it for some time, and could really use to cut my grass before farmers mistake it for a field growing hay..
no idea how old the mower is.. the people who sold me the house just left it behind as part of the sale agreement.
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, please use layman terms if possible as I am very new to this (before moving here just over a year ago I had only ever needed a push mower so any kind of small engine repair let alone riding mowers in general are very new to me)
