Tractor has always fired right up. Parked it last weekend, went to restart it. Lights came on, sounded like I heard the fuel pump relay? Turned the key to start, nothing. Then the lights went out—nothing after that even if I turned the key off and back on. Thought at first that the one year old battery was bad, but ruled that out. Almost seemed like a bad ground. Checked the ground from the battery to the block. Even took it off from the block—it was clean and tight. Pic attached. Checked continuity from battery to ground bolt—all good. If I disconnect the battery, can get lights and repeat the same sequence, but then if I turn the key again, no lights,no nothing. Seems like it has to be a simple electrical problem. Hoping for some ideas here. I have some skills, but limited. If you have any suggestions, please include details—don’t assume I know much! My place is a coupe of hours away, so I don’t have the luxury of trying one thing and reporting back. Would greatly appreciate a few ideas—what to try if the first thing doesn’t work.
Greatly appreciate any insight someone has. Hate to go to the trouble and expense of getting someone to come out for what is likely an easy fix.
