Someone Help!
I have a problem with my 300EX. It just wont start. I thought that it was the battery so i went and bought a new one today. It does the same thing. When I hit the start button all it does is click. It has a new battery so i know that isnt the problem. So does anyone know what the problem is?:confused:
-
your selanoid (sp) is probabley bad. I would check all of your connection to ground and make sure they are all clean and tight.:)
-
Yeah it is probably your selanoid. our riding lawn mower does that somtimes, and we just take somthing hard like a wrench or hammer tap on it, and it will usually work. Check and make sure the wires are connected good first (you may have to twist them on the bolt a little). If you do that and it still doesn't work then try tapping it with something solid.
-
I've tried tapping it with something but no luck......I'm goin to go out and tighten them up.....maybe they are loose or something
-
Welp i went out and all the bolts are tight and it still wont do anything. I'm starting to think that my starter is bad.
-
Yes it could be your starter too, but make sure before you go buy a new one. (like the battery)
you might try tapping the starer too, somtimes the starter will get hung. I think that is whats wrong with our mower, not our selanoid. I can't remember cause it has been a while since i've used it.
-
Thanks atomic and stevo. I'll try tapping my starter too. Hopefully that is all that it is. Hopefully the starter isnt bad.
-
Atomic thank you....all it took was a tap on the starter with a hammer. You just saved me some $$$$$$. Thanks again
-
that tap was not a permanant fix. It will be doing that again....start saving some $$$ for a new starter.

check your fuses
i had the same problem with my 400 adn my recon its probably a fuse. if your fuse is good then it is your selonoid.
