MF 1547 doesn't start

[WilliamBos]

Between diagnosing and fixing, probably spent about 4 hours on it.

You meant on the meter, didn't you? lol. I'm not sure, I'll check it and get back to you.

well, both. how long did it take to swap it out?

and, yeah, the tractor. Our 1635 is 2 years, 245 hours.

Once I had the problem fgiured out and the new parts, it took about 1-1/2 hour or so.

The hour meter registers 541 hours, its a 2005 model year.

Thank you. So, we are good for a while then. Was it very expensive??

One dealer wanted $249 plus shipping for the solenoid. The one we b ought it from had it in stock and was $229 plus $8 for the gasket for it. Too expensive to keep a spare around but the dealer does keep them in stock.

Thanks. At that price, I wont be keeping a spare either.

Sounds like you dealt with the same thing I did. Not that it matters now, but I made a thread about it, wow a few years back, getting old, lol. I would post the link but I am using an app for my phone and don't see a way to post a link from another thread.

In any case happy you got her going.
