Think I have bought myself a series of problems with this super major.
Now it wont start.
A couple of days ago The negative terminal of one of the batteries suddenly smoked and melted a bit when I shut down the tractor. It started fine after recharging. The plus terminal had come too close to the tank.
Now a couple of days later it will not crank. The solenoid clicks when I push the starting lever and also when bridging the two terminals on the starter or when hooking up a new and good battery directly to the starter.
The light are still working apart from right rear light.
Any other way to test the starter?
Does this sound like the solenoid is ok and it is the starter has fried?
Is there a guide somewhere to repair a starter motor if it is possible to repair?
Btw, the engine is not stuck. I can turn the fan?
One odd thing is that when testing with a multimeter on the two terminals in the switch above the starter(2 red wires) it shows 12,6v. Is that ok?
