Hi everyone! I've got an electrical issue with my 1230. Yesterday I tilled up my garden, and after I was done I shut it down to clean it up. When I tried to restart it, I got nothing. No cranking of the starter whatsoever. The battery is less than a year old. I'm wondering if anyone has experienced an electrical issue like this. Seems like I'm leaking volts somewhere. Right now the battery is on the charger, not sure if that will do it or not.

Thanks for any and all input.

Forgot to mention that the glow plug indicator will light up, and when the key is turned, the 2 lights on the dash will light up. But when the key is turned to start the engine, nothing happens.

Sounds like a safety switch is not made, seat, gearshift, pto.:confused2: Make sure all switches are made properly and good luck. Let us know what you find.:D

try unplugging them one at a time...or you may possibly have to unplug and jump the wires to complete the circut..either way...sounds like you got something wet and maybe it's not working now...you may want to use a hair dryer and dry out some contact points
