Need help diagnosing my problem. This is my first tractor and I am not very mechanical but would like to fix this myself before driving to the dealership. I still have 4 months before my warrantee runs out so I should be able to pick up the part free of charge.
When I turn over my ignition key, I can see all my lights on my dashboard light up. I can also here it clicking. Sometimes it will turn over and start but most of the time it just clicks until I turn the key over again or move the forward/neutral/reverse lever. It seems like when I jiggle this lever, i can get it to turn over and crank most of the time. I called my dealer and he thinks it is the ignition switch. If so, he said it was pretty easy to change and I can just get the switch from him and do it myself. This would save me the hassle from borrowing a trailer and driving 50 miles each way. Any suggestions?
