Hi Dave
Here is the rest of the story.....the tractor hasn't started well for some time and a few months back it wouldn't start at all so I decided to replace the old parts since nothing had been touched for many years. I replaced the cables, battery and starter. Unfortunately the day I did...
I took the starter off and tested it on the bench by hooking it up as you instructed. When I make the connection, the part of the starter with the teeth extends clear out but does not spin..
Do I have something wired incorrectly?
Thanks Dave. I put the starter back together and installed it but I don't even get a click when I turn the key. New starter, new battery and new cables....You will see in the photos that I put the small red wire from the tractor on the same post as the positive cable coming from the battery...
I need help hooking the wires back up to the solenoid switch.....can't seem to find a good diagram. An explanation of what each of the four posts is for would be very helpful.
Thanks!
