Good day and welcome to Just Answer. My name is XXXXX XXX I'd be happy to help you with your problem today. We can easily determine your problem if you have a battery charger & a multi meter, do you have those?
Yes I have those
excellent, please charge the battery until fully charged, if it already is, great, then using you meter set on dc voltage, connect the meter leads to the battery & please get these voltage readings;
key off
key on
start button depressed as if trying to start
let me know those & we'll go from there
Key off 11.0 Key on 10.7
& what is the reading with the start button depressed?
I miss that I will go now check that sorry
ok cool..
11.0
that can't be, you can't have 10.7 without it depressed & 11. with it depressed, are all safety switches good & start switch set to start/run?
I have light with key on
that doesn't matter
ok explain again what do you mean
you can't have more voltage with the start button depressed that with it not depressed. your tests needs done again.
I have when I press 10.7 when I depressed 11.0
depressed = released the botton right
no, depressed = the button pushed in, as if starting as I said...
That's right that is the number
I'm now not sure what you are talking about.
I need three readings from the battery
start button pushed in as if you are starting the machine
I'm not sure where this got off track, was I unclear?
I just want to be sure you understand what we are doing
Ok button pushed in is 10.7 depressed not depressed 11.0 I think I got it
ok, that makes more sense, you have a bad solenoid or battery cables
Ok Thanks I will check the cable if not I will change the solenoid
Thank for tonight
Thank you, let me know if you have more issues.
