S130 And MowerPlus Smart Module Won’t Connect.

Only thing I can tell you is to contact JD tech service directly. Your JD dealer should be able to give you a number if they can’t help you. Might have to apologize for not going through them when you purchased the unit. Time to bite the tip off your tongue. Another reason to using a dealership.

Like I previously mentioned, the JD dealers ( I just called a dealer again an hour ago) here in central Ohio do not have the S130 in stock. He said maybe October. Going through a dealer was my first choice but it was the dealer that told me to check with a Lowes or Home Depot.

Duh, I meant to ask them for help troubleshooting the problem.

I work at a Deere dealership, and Deere is sending more units to box stores than dealerships. The dealerships don't focus as much on the 'cheapies' as the box stores do, so that makes logistical sense. That said, I've never used or sold the smart connector. It's not a diagnostic tool, and as long as you remember to get your machine serviced once a season, it's money wasted. Just my opinion though!
