hi everyone hope all had a great thanksgiving. I went out today to move some snow. we got about 6 inches:mad: Temp went down to about 20 over night. I tried to start the max 28 and nothing. It didn't even turn over. the block heater was on for about a hour. The block was warm to the touch. The seat felt stiff from the cold. I pulled the connection for the seat safety switch apart and jumped the terminals with a piece of wire and bamm she turned right over:). Has anyone else seen this. It is like the seat was so cold it would not let the contacts come together to activate the starter.

Yep , the seat was stiff enough your weight did not close the switch .

I had the same problem with a Max25, even in warm weather. The dealer had a jumper ready made so, this may be rather common.
