Some good advice here for the people who don't know much about how mowers work, however you left out a couple of very important things...
1. When checking the battery with a multi-meter, the meter may read 12+ volts but can have a bad cell, so as soon as you go to start it, it drops to 7 volts or so. You need a load tester, or like you said, take it to an auto parts store and have them test it.
2. You showed how to change your fuel filter, but forgot to mention clamping off the line to the tank. If someone who doesn't know any better pulls off that filter and the fuel tank has any fuel in it, (hopefully not full) will get soaked with gasoline. MAKE SURE THAT LINE IS CLAMPED OFF!!! You can use a vise grip or buy the fuel line pinch off pliers for better results.
3. You don't need to sit on the seat to start it if you set the parking brake. Sometimes and very few mowers need an extra push to depress the S.I.L. switch but you can start lots of machines with just setting the brake.
4. Last but not least, when checking wires, mice LOVE to make a nest underneath the blower housing, (engine cover to the layman) and chew the coil wires in half. Most people wouldn't even know this, or how to check or take off the blower housing to check them, or even if they have tools to do so.
This is why you have your local outdoor equipment shop service your machine every spring.
Once again, you did a great job explaining things to people why their mower won't start! ;)
Thanks for the good info, I thought about some of this after the video.
@@DIYJIM anytime Jim. I know sometimes when you're making a video you forget a lot of stuff. Like I said it was very good video.
@@joeganusi8522 Thank you Joe hope your day was Awesome
I had just finished mowing and blew the mower off with the leaf blower. After that it would not start. Wouldn’t do anything. Not crank, no lights, the hour display didn’t even come on. I was sure the switch went bad.
So I ordered the switch and when I put it in nothing changed.
I watched this video and kept saying “that’s not it, that’s not it.” Was just about to give up and move on.
And then you pointed out the fuse! My mower had it in a different spot but by golly that was it!
You saved me buying other parts and scratching my head while the wife laughed at me because I couldn’t fix a silly mower!
Thanks for the video! Saved me more headaches!
Awesome glad my video helped. Thanks for leaving a comment.
Just the video I needed this weekend...you saved me a lot of heartache & $$$$$. BIG Thank you from Australia
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching
Thank you! You just saved me a ton of time and money! Great job.
Awesome glad I could help
Hi Jim...enjoyed the video... Great tips & info on the Husqvarna....A lot can be used on other mowers as well....Tks for sharing!
Thanks, yes but some people don’t know that they are all very close to the same. So I made almost the same video for John Deere, Cub cadet, and Husqvarna.
Lmao I thought I broke my mower, man I left the blade on 🤣🤣 thank you so much for making me remember the basics brother!!
Glad to help
@@DIYJIM i wasted a lot of time looking for the fuse where they said it should be. You just got another sub.

Thanks for your wisdom. I finally got my mower back in action!
@@kathywakefield6487 your welcome
Thank you VERY much. I was able to narrow it down to bad gas in my neighbors mower and it worked after cleaning out tank and fuel lines. YOU ROCK!!!!!
Awesome glad I could help
That’s whT I’m currently doing ! Ugh
Watched a couple of minutes and found the problem. Awesome
Awesome glad I could help thanks for watching
Thank you Jim, very helpful. I've tried a few things here but you've shown me some additional nooks and crannies to look through/for. Mine is a massive mouse magnet over the winter. Buzzes, but won't engage.
Lucky man - I've never heard of an ethanol-free gas station!
Try searching ethanol free gas in my area on Google. I’m sure someone near you sells it.
@@DIYJIM Luckily I found some stations that only sell it and it has made a difference in my small engine equipment performance.
Thanks so much I’m a widower and this is how I try and fix things myself.
You are so welcome!
Excellent information. Thanks Jim.
You are very welcome
I appreciate this video, couldn’t find the fuse which was my whole issue! Thank you!
You're welcome!
Thanks so much for your video! I was gifted this exact mower and couldn’t figure out why it wouldn’t start. Turns out it was the fuse.
Awesome glad I could help
Helped with a few things I didn't know. Where air filter is and how to take it off etc. Thanks!😊
your welcome
Jim Just saved me a trip to the repair Shop ! My issue Was the well hidden fuse (under the seat, under the battery, under the wheel well...), Thanks Jim !!
Glad i saved you some money. Thanks for leaving a comment
@@DIYJIMmy Husqvarna started up and when I engaged blades the throttle wasn't up enough. It died . It will not start back up but the motor is turning over good. Could this be spark plugs or one of the switches? Thanks
@@bradspainhoward322Did you figure this out? Mine did the same thing. Won’t start after dying when trying to engage the blades.
Thank you!! One of the wires in the clip under my seat was not seated properly. You da man!!!
Glad I could help
Great Video.
Piper is so cute and has such beautiful eyes!
You and your family have a Safe & Happy Easter!
Thanks Debra you as well. We just got done having a Easter dinner with the family it was delicious.
Thank you so much. I got an old Murray ride on Mower and, on the other day, I could not start the engine. The engine does not even make a sound and I don't know what to do. Then, I found your video and check with your list and I immediately found that one battery terminal is loose. Once I tightened it up, it started to run straight away. Even though this might be a very simple advice, it made me really happy. Best Regards,
Awesome glad you got your mower running. Thanks for leaving a comment,
Im going to pick up a used one, similar model to this, tomorrow. My brother bought it new about 3 years ago and it stopped running on him last summer. Said it's not the battery so I will have to troubleshoot it to get it running again. This video will come in super handy. Thank you!!
welcome thanks for watching
I love your videos Jim I like how your channel is how you work on mowing tractors You know some of the futures of the tractor in that video Just engine parts
Glad I could help, thanks for watching John
Replaced the battery incorrectly and couldn't figure out what to check after it wouldn't even try to start. This video helped me find and replace the fuse. The mower now runs good as new. Thank you.
Awesome glad I could help
Without looking for the + and - it is easy to hook up wrong. My new battery posts were opposite the old battery. So I accidentally had the polarity backwards. Figured it out quick once the mower didn’t start. Ugh!
Thanks a lot JIM. I went out and bought a solenoid Before I checked half theses things. Upon further inspection the silly PTO was engaged. Its a different configuration. Its not as obvious as the big lever. I just have the pull up/ push down switch. Keep up the good work
You also might add, check to see if you got gas in it.
Glad it helped, thanks for watching Neil
Thanks so much.....I looked all over for the 29 A fuse, and finally found find the little bugger . Didn't solve my problem...but appreciate for your tips. GB.
Welcome thanks for watching
Thanks for showing where the fuse is.
Your welcome
Thank you, a version of #1 was my issue 😂
glad I could help
checked first thing you said ,that was it thank you.
You're welcome
Thank you for this video
Your welcome
Thank you. Watched 2 minutes and knew what was wrong with ours.
Glad I could help Donnie
I had exactly the same experience! I was at 0:59 seconds and I found that the “blade rotation” was engaged! Super helpful. ❤❤
Appreciate you this video helped a lot
Glad I could help
Hilarious.. had the blades engaged tested all wires and had a good battery haven't mowed in 3 weeks smh been wanting a zero turn but I guess I'm too high all the time can't even see this massive lever in the wrong position haha
Glad I could help thanks for watching
Vert helpful video thanks. Yea I put a brand new battery in mine but still won't sart, probably need to change the starter. But how do I know if it's a solenoid or the starter?
This was a great video great help so down by my break one of the wires were chewed through and that was my problem. Thank you so much for making this video.
Your welcome thanks for subscribing if you are a new subscriber
Great vid. Husqvarna Cth173 Working fine. stopped and emptied the grass box and it wouldn't start again, doesn't even click. Battery tested and is good. When this happened before Mum got the repair guy out who said there was a safety switch at the rear that he had to sort. Have read the manual, can't spot this .. any ideas where this is located so we can avoid the repair shop. Thank you
Thank you.
Your welcome
Thanks so much. Sure enough checked the fuse and it was broken
Glad I could help, thanks for watching
Great video
thanks
Thanks!
Welcome
Thank you!
Welcome!
Thank you
Your welcome
Good info and nice shop. What type of sealant or coating do you have on your floor?? thanks for your help.
Thanks I don’t have any sealant on my floor.
Mine turned out to be the 20amp fuse. Although, I found mine under the hood along the right side. I couldn’t figure out why I had absolutely no power. I thought for sure it was the safety switch under the seat.
Glad you got it figured out.
saved by the first step
Glad I could help
I have a husqvarna YTH 24K48, replaced battery, cleaned carburetor, replace intake gas grommet & hose., blew out gas line. Mower will crank but won’t stay started - HELP??!!!
Follow up question to my post a minute ago: can the switch (brake pedal safety switch) be by-passed?
I can not recommend but I am sure if you connect the two wires it would be bypassed. I have never done that probably not a good idea for safety. Thank you for watching my video I hope I helped you.
Had to adjust the choke cause it wouldn’t start now it makes a pop sound when it starts up ?
Sorry not my mower I was just showing how to do all the easy things to keep mower out of the shop a little longer. Sorry can not help
I have a 2019 TS142 and the fuse block is under right rear wheel well, behind wheel, directly under and to the right of the battery which is under seat. Manual says fuse block is behind dash...doh!...not always. I also had problems with ignition switch not turning all the way off so I had to replace switch as it was blowing fuse and stopping all power going to mower.
I thought the same thing not sure why the say it is behind the dash. Thanks for watching
i had hard start,was choke adjustment ,wasnt choking simple cable clamp,poor quality control at assembly,also magneto air gap was excessive, added a fuel shut off,
Thanks for watching Mark
You do show and address the safety switch that is actuated by the "clutch/brake" pedal, but you don't mention what to do if it is faulty. Mine seems to be. if I re-seat the plug, it may work - or may not. It is intermittent and undependable. Can the switch be replaced? This is a 2017 24V48 tractor, and other than the faulty switch, it operates fine. The switch seems to move too much when the pedal is depressed. Does the pedal rod actually contact the switch physically? Great video BTW.
You can search for the safety switch on amazon, I am sure it can be replaced. Or if you have a local small engine shop maybe they would have one.
How many fuses are in a Husqvarna riding lawn mower
I have that mower. It stopped running. There is a vacuum hose that split that goes to the fuel pump it won't stay on. Can you tell me is that an easy replacement. It is a small 3 inch fuel hose. Wondering how to get it out of the cover below the fuel pump. That's for any help! You video is very helpful.
They should have that hose at a auto parts store or Harware store.
Can the hose just be pulled out of that lower cover and replaced or do I need to take that cover off I think someone called it a valve cover. To get the hose in that piece. I have the part ordered. The top it just slips on the part from the fuel pump..
@@debramartin2428 had a grommet end ,they crack or get brittle,its a pulse hose pulses the fuel pump,you may need to fish out the grommet,good time for valve adjustment
My husqvarna would not start. Did the choke adjustment, still did not start. Took the cowling off and there was the problem. Alot of debris and about 2" of wire missing going to my fuel pump. The little chipmunk that lives in my shead had been busy. Blew out the engine and spliced the wire. Engine fired up as usual.
Glad you got it, thanks for watching
EXCELLENT, Jim. Very informative and accurate. Thank you for making this video. I noticed the cross on your garage wall and your cap. What does lettering on your cap say..........God greater....????? I'm thinking this creates opportunities to witness.
Please let me know. Thanks again...................... rex
God is greater than the ups and downs. Thanks for watching my friend
I know what you meant behind the filter the husqvarna is hard to Understand with the engine I barely don't know anything about engines My tractor is the 42 mower
My Husqvarna 22v46 wouldn’t start. Replaced gas, battery, both plugs, fuel filter, fuel pump, vacuum hose and air filter. Still wouldn’t start. Turns out the throttle cable stretched. Wasn’t engaging the choke. With my finger I can complete the linkage action and activate the choke. Starts right up. Is the throttle cable adjustable?
Sorry not sure, that was my neighbors mower. I would think there would be a way. Let me know if you get it figured out.
I have the same issue with mine
its a small clamp that connects the cable to carburetor, there are some ytube videos on it ,simple adjustment,fixed mine
@@sonofthunder. exactly. Once I adjusted it, it has started on the first crank every time. Made it through the remainder of last season and fired right up again this season.
My boss was running hers and it was on the reserve tank, it ran out I switched it to the main tank and it won't even crank still.
Mine won't spin over. I think the winter killed the battery because it won't spin with a battery charger hooked up either
Maybe take your battery to an auto parts store and they can check it. Hope you get it figured out
My lawnmower won’t start because one time when I was using it, I accidentally left the speed lever up when I turned it off. Now I think I damaged the choke, does anyone know how to fix that? UPDATE: it’s actually the battery, has nothing to do with the lever.
sorry not sure Hope you figure it out
Update: it turns out that the battery was actually low on volts, yeah nothing to do with the lever.
Jim The headlights Never seem to turn on on that tractor I don't think the headlights have ever been worked I can never get those headlights to work
Maybe a wire broke on needs new bulbs
What is the black hose coming out of the engine running down by the fuel line. Mine is detached and I don't know where it goes? Thanks
That is probably a vent tube for your fuel tank
Hey Jim thank you for this video
I have the same model number and I’m trying to look for the voltage regulator
Do you know if this model comes with one?
My issue is I am having to replace my battery every season
Thank you and God bless
Sorry I’m not sure that was my neighbors mower.
Excellent video but my issue is it cranks and won't stop cranking until it kills the battery, plugs, fuel pump, ignition switch, starter solenoid all new, doesn't do it all the time, any help would be appreciated 👍
Maybe you have a loose wire, really not sure hard to help from a comment. I would ask a friend to help you out. Hope you get it figured out.
I was mowing when it was really wet. I stopped and tried to start it back up and it just buzzes. Any ideas??
Really not sure maybe starter
I only buy non ethanol fuel for my lawn mowers
Same here, thanks for watching
Need to add SaftySwitch for Deck...
thanks for watching
Hi, I was mowing good for about 30 minutes. Stopped to go get a drink and came back and it won’t start -no click or noise. Any tips ? Thank you
Sounds like you left your blades on but I’m guessing you checked that.
Could be the switch on your carburetor. Mine wouldn't start because the linkage was stiff (ie the one on the carburetor) I sprayed it with wd-40 gel and runs pisser now!
What about thw wire for the headlights. Mine detached when I took the hood off 😬
Did that make it not start? I would think it should still start with the headlight unplugged.
@@DIYJIM I haven't started it yet because I'm a little worried because I already blew the starter and had to replace it from me making a mistake. I ask because I watched another video and his problem was detached headlight wires and I wanna make sure everything's in place before I start it up
Bro I don't even know anything about the headlights edwhite oh I can tell you every time when I flip that switch it doesn't seem to turn on the lights I don't understand I wish the tractor had the same type of future As the John Deere John Deere Because it's ridiculous how you cannot get the weights on With the John Deere you can just turn the key to the light symbol and it turns on but with this one it doesn't even look like get turns on at a hall Why don't you and turn on What the c*** what the h*** what the f*** Stupid headlight design I understand the Swedish brand But if they put it the same way as the John Deere symbol on the key part then it'll be more interesting
Everything else seems fine with it except I don't know anything about the engine parts I don't get the point why the headlights are the problem When you flip that switch it doesn't even do anything I understand there's a headlight symbol on the key area and totally it doesn't On What is a Some type of replica Because it seems to me that the headlights were never even working at all When you 1st get the tractor Is bizarre
When he says start, does he mean turn over?. It's very important to know if it won't turn over.
It can mean both start and turn over. Thank you for watching
I have a similar model and i replaced the battery because there was no clicking nor turning over. Still nothing. Headlights wont even come on.
I would check wires sometimes over winter mice mess up wires.
Update: Replace main fuse and it would crank but made a clanging kind of noise. I have no idea what this is.
@@sanchez69ification I’m not sure are you on Facebook? join a small engine group and post a video. Maybe someone can help
@@DIYJIM Thanks Jim. I will do that.
My problem is it won’t turn over? Thinking battery is pooched. Don’t have a meter to check. Should bring it in to get tested I guess
Hope you get it figured out
Bought new battery. Started right away
@@sylverfox1968 awesome that’s good
He figured one of the cells were dead. Problem solved
How do I move my husqvarna when the engine isn't running
There is a wire in the back of the mower right next to where you connect a trailer. Pull that wire out it disconnects the hydrostatic. Hope this helps.
Push it
never could figure out why mice love ANY wires; but they do.
That is crazy not sure why they want to chew wires. Thanks for watching
@@DIYJIM read once where the Germans were shipping new Tigers to the Eastern Front (Kursk)only to find when they got there, field mice had chewed most of the electricals
Just put a brand new battery in and absolutely nothing… No idea what it could be
Hope you get it figured out. Check your wires make sure mice did not chew.
I was cutting my lawn and it just turned off on me. I go to try to turn it but it just wouldn't turn. I cranks and the hour indicator comes on. When I turn the key i hear a clicking sound on the bottom right of my seat. Can anybody help please?
maybe battery, starter solenoid, hard to say. Hope you get it figures out.
@DIYJIM it was the battery man. Asked tbe previous owner and he said tbe battery was from a old mower he had. Went to Sam's club, bought one. Now it runs perfect.
@@mugiwaratrii4545 awesome glad you got it fixed
What about the push button?
Not sure what you’re talking about. But thanks for watching.
I can’t get mine to start :/
Just keeps spinning and won’t turn on
Hope you get it figured out
My dash wont even come on.
Hope you get it figured out
When I started to start up my lawn mower out here clicking noise I checked the battery what on Earth is this
Maybe your battery was dead.
Very helpful, but I will never buy Husqvarna anything! My lawn tractor and weed trimmer were junk! They spent more time in repair shop than in my garage or being used for yard work!
Thanks for watching
I don't like to talk about brand's but randal may have a point. I got my lawn tractor on clearance. I got a job that's demanding as for as hrs go. When I need to cut my yard on the spur of the moment. It's let me down 75% of the time.
@@cecilb3216 That was my experience, especially at the start of every season. Riding mower and weed trimmer.
I just bought my Husqvarna 32 days ago. Tried mowing my lawn for the 3rd time today. It won't start. No lights. Nothing. No idea. Spent almost 2 hours on hold trying to speak to a human to find out what to do since it supposedly has a 3 year bumper to bumper warranty.
I want to return it though since I'm having issues this early on...
Me too, nothing but a headache since I bought it years ago. Seems I have to change the battery every 6 months !
Mine is brand new. Ran 20 minutes and quit. Won’t start or turn over at all
Hope you get it figured out.
if its brand new it probably has a warranty so just let them fix it
