Hello, my scag cheeta won't turn over it acts like a safety switch isn't working. At first it would crank after moving the levers around then wasn't sure which switch affected it. Now won't turn over
Firstly see if you can turn it over by hand.
Always a possability of a seized engine which may be recoverable if you don't cause any more damage.
If it does then get a copy of the wiring diagram which is in the back of the owners manual which can be downloaded from Scag if you don't have one.
There are 2 individual safety circuits.
one wont let you crank the engine
The other won't let the engine fire.
On most ZTR's won't crank is motion control levers, parking brake & pto switch.
Power goes from the starter solenoid feed terminal via a fused wirs t the B terminal on the ignition switch then to the S terminal on the same switch then to the PTO switch and then to a relay from the relay to the starter solenoid + trigger terminal.
The motion control levers connect to the - of the starter relay which trips the relay and allows the + to go to the starter solenoid.
