Ok, I knew it would be something stupid. After hours and hours. I did not know the deck lift had a safety way up front. Lesson learned. All is well now. Hope this can help someone, someday.

The pto will kick on if you barley put the relay in and pull it to one side. I thought the plug was bad. So I replaced the plug, and tried 3 different relays. They are all the same. You have to barley plug it in, and pull it to the side. I dont get it.

I just bought this mower sight unseen, it is a very nice looking, low hour unit. My problem is my PTO will not engage. I can jump the clutch while its running with 12v and the blades turn on. I have a good ground at the plug, but no 12v. I have a new switch, relay, fuses. I have temporarily...

I have a Grasshopper 620T Mower, just bought it used. Its not charging. Regulator didn't help. I'm only getting 22 AC volts out of the stator at wide open throttle. On this model does the motor have to be slid back to get the shroud and access to the flywheel and all that? On my older woods, the...

I have my neighbors little Cub Cadet 1170 riding mower in the shop. It has an automatic transmission, but not a hydro stat. Its like a snowmobile clutch type set up. I got it because it was jerking when driving, like the drive belt was slipping, but it also does not disengage when letting off...

I just picked up a spotless older woods mow n machine 2850. It does need some help though. I need to find the PTO wire diagram and possibly a new harness. It had the PTO switch cought on fire, and the wires all burnt. It seems isolated to just the PTO harness. If anyone has a clear diagram I...

Got the deck off. At the end of the height adjustment rod, there is a step gear type thing as pictured connected to the rod. There is nothing close that this would lock on to, you can pull the rod up and down but it doesnt come close to connecting to anything. Still cannot find a diagram or...

well after much frustration, after messing with ignition. After thinking the switches were fine, it turns out the pto switch is bad..... A few years ago the dealer put an ignition in, the plug in was bad, so they had to cut and put spade connectors on all the ignition wires, I unplugged them...

Ok, got my dads toro 265h at the house. Its not cranking over, When you turn the key you can hear one of the two relays click but thats all. There is not 12 volts on the small post of the solonoid. If you jump the solonoid it will crank over, but will not start. it started with the key for...

Picked up a New holland MC28 mower needing repair, the pto wont engage unless the threaded adjustment rod is adjusted to the max, like barley 2 threads left. And even then you have to hold it just right or it wont engage. The linkage has been tampered with by someone, but I dont know what they...
