- At the beginning of mowing season this year a new issue came up with my 1 year old Ryobi self propelled 40 volt brushless mower. The blade wouldn't start so this is my story of how I fixed it and saved money and time using the parts in the video. I hope this helps you
Ronald thank you for the video. Same problem, same root cause, same fix. And my first time splicing! Appreciate you.
Your welcome... I hope it helps people ... thats what it's about .... you tube has helped me so many times it's not funny
Great video. Kudos for posting that. Yes, I hit the button. Yeah, first thing I had to get used to with mine is the fact NO washing, NO hose and certainly no pressure washing the deck. Waiting until the grass is totally dry is prolly a smart thing as well. Mine will only be used 10-15 minutes max with the rest of the mowing with my tractor. Hopefully that will extend its life expectancy.
Ronald, thank you very much for putting great videos, save me a lot of money, found the replacement circuit on eBay and install it, works great. thanks
Excellent video man, thanks for putting that up. Actually helpful!
Your welcome ... I learned a lot from the experience.... so many times I see things just aren't engineered very smart. After 45 years of restoring old cars you realize engineers aren't always your friend lol
Why would you spray water on a lawnmower? i think you should keep it dry
It is my sons and they kept it under a porch but rain could get to it when they didn't cover it .... and some people like to rinse them off to keep them looking new. The point is if I was designing something with sensitive electrical components I would want to ensure they didn't get wet ...
Good job on video, thanks
Thanks for the detail!
Your welcome ... hope it helped
It did although I did not have the same problem; that being said yours is the first video that I've seen that shows the cover removed and I also wondered about potential risk of clipping that wire that gets caught by the handle. I will try to replicate your fix for that!
That was a poor design for sure
I think I better get warrantee work done on mine. I bought mine last year and the mower was never left outside in fact I stored it in my living room on a tarp near the front door. Mine has the fold down handle and I couldn't see any switches. Well since I bought mine using PayPal I should be able to pull up the receipt. I will comment when Ryobi looks at the mower. 73
Well my son's quit working about 4 months in and it was a pinched wire at the base of the handle... it didn't have a switch on the handle fold lock part either
@@ronaldgarrett3670 Thanks I don't know if I will mess with it but I will tell the person working on it to check that area. Thanks again 73
Would you happen to know where the tilt switch is located. Mine shuts down when you turn it.
My last ryobi mower lasted me years even though I bought it used and abused. My brand new one died in 6 months or so of light use.
Idk what happened but ryobi has gone downhill. Garbage design, cheap garbage parts, and they don’t stand by their product at all anymore. They want you to drive hours away to drop it off at a repair facility which already has literally dozens sitting around for months just waiting for back ordered parts.
Sadly the engineers don't think through real world circumstances
and expensive
I'm also in need of new circuit but can't locate one
I have a 21" Ryobi 40v, clearly says don't rinse off with water, just wipe clean 😮 Also mine has 5 year warranty, which my mower motor works but blade doesn't 😢
this mower makes me wish I did not sell my honda when i moved.
I still have a Honda powered husqvarna mower and I love it. We bought the battery one for my son because at the time with als he couldn't pull one to start it and still wanted to mow the grass
@@ronaldgarrett3670 yeah we sold it due to having a big rider, but things changed and now wish I had it. mine the blade won't turn. less than a year old.
Anyone knows the part number for the 16 in. Ryobi401018vnm Blade for 40 V
To know how to take the mower apart you need to watch my second video here ua-cam.com/video/RrL8teOy-hA/v-deo.html
Hi Ronald, my original controller model# PM177-20B-1 is broken, the only controller I can find online is PM177-20C-1, wondering if the 20C-1 can be compatible?
I just did some research and some of them just had an extra wire for like the bagger or a switch on handle lock ... so it's a possibility
@@ronaldgarrett3670 Thank you so much for the advice👍
I think the one I got was on ebay
Found a used one on ebay under ryobi 40 volt blade mower controller
