Chosen Solution
My tractor does nothing when I turn the key. I tried changing the battery but still nothing. What is the next possible problem?
Ron, Have starter tested to be sure it is holding a good charge. Try to turn engine by hand, to ensure engine is not seized. Check/clean/tighten all connections on battery/solenoid/starter/Ignition switch and neg(-) cable to frame or motor. Check to ensure all safety features are working properly and not engaged. Check for an inline fuse, bypass solenoid to see if engine cranks if it does replace solenoid, if no crank replace starter. I will post some trouble shooting links below, feel free to search the web as there are a lot more(Trouble shooting lawn tractor will not crank). Good luck.
