Topic

Since I started this recent thread, I owe an update. I obtained a wiring diagram from the dealer and did some continuity and voltage checking. I found one crimped wire connector on the hot feed from the starter solenoid to the ignition switch that was funky and replaced that. I also replaced the positive battery cable to the starter solenoid. After that, it started right up. After using for a few hours, it wouldn't start again - no click, no noise. I found that the PTO safety switches were not closed and no power was getting from ignition to the starter solenoid. This can easily be checked by a volt meter connecting to the stab-on wire connector on the top of the solenoid. I had already bypassed the neutral safety and may do the same with the PTO safties or readjust them. Now, it will start or at least I get the solenoid click. However, I think the starter needs attention - maybe new brushes. I plan to take it off and have it checked before cold weather.
