4052R is DEAD

[LouieJunior]

Thank you all! I hope you are correct about the battery! Trying a new battery is a price I am glad to pay.

One additional clue - The work lights won't turn on now. Prior to this, I could turn them on without putting the key in the ignition.

Try boosting it with the present battery disconnected.

Same thing happened to my 4320, it would click but nothing more. Gave the started a couple of good taps with a hammer and she would fire up. Replaced the starter and problem went away.

Well, the fact that his work lights not turning on eliminates the starter as being the problem.

Must have missed that part. Thats what I get for reading with only one eye open and first cup of coffee. LOL

Switch to Blackout Coffee, that stuff is loaded with caffeine and it tastes like real coffee as well.

I have some in the pods. I don't think the pods taste that good

I have had death wish coffee in both the pods and grounds. The grounds have more flavor.

New $175 Battery resolved my problem. I had to modify it slightly to fit it in. The little ridges were different than the original one. Thanks all for your help!

Glad to hear it’s running and thanks for coming back and letting us know.

Glad to hear your up again. Very typical failure for these tractors. Happened to me as well on 2 different 40XXR machines. Turn the key then "click-click, pause, click-click, pause" every time. Most of the time you'll see it throw the code "ECU A 1485.02" when this happens. Then you panic when you look it up because it says GO TO DEALER NOW AND BRING LOTS OF MONEY!!! The code indicates faulty, intermittent, or incorrect data from main relay. Most of the time, the culprit is simply a bad battery. The times it happened to me was when the original factory battery failed. My local NAPA dealer had the "fix" in stock both times. Thanks for sharing your results with us. Knowledge is power!
