There is a possibility that the starter motor solinoid is not always pushing the internal contacts together hard enough for the maximum current to pass into the motor. Dirty contacts inside the solinoid. Those battery clamps were so dodgy that the resistance would limit the current, not good.
the switch went out on mine many times , The china companies supplying parts to the US companies are failing in quality .. I tried contact cleaner and WD40 and the ignition switches are kinda cheap built anymore ..
Nice step-by-step process in getting the mower to run.
Thank you . Lucky it was an easy job
Great job Terry, That's great advise to follow. Thanks
Thanks Lloyd for stopping in . It has started good so far
That is when JD made good stuff, Heavy frames, heavy drive-trans and so on.
Yea i call the new stuff Tin mowers . More metal in a 318 frame than in a whole new tractor .
Im having the same issues and a friend told me the same. He jumpered the time delay module and put a push button starter and it fixed tge problem
Yes that is an option .

Dirty contacts inside the solinoid.

Those nice terminals lol . They were pretty rough
I’m having a similar issue However I still have the original onan engine on mine
Still basically the same . Testing should be about the same . Hope you get it all sorted out
How do I rewire the old style of ignition switch to new style
Just use the same letters on the switch . Maybe i am not following your question right
Battery terminal corrosion 😮😢
