    Yahoo Kees went out of business several years ago. Worked on a 60" YK zero turn that had several issues this summer. Electrical troubleshooting gives lots of people problems. It is my weakness but have improved a lot. Good fix again. Sell it in the spring!

      Yazoo are good mowers. In my opinion same quality as exmark. Its a little harder to find parts though.

    My mower was left out in weather for 5 years. Did all the typical tune up stuff and got it running but the blades won't engage at all. You've given me a place to start and I ordered the test light. Thank you!

    Keep the videos coming brother, thanks. 👍

    Na no worries, a fuse, don't feel bad, their loss is your gain, not your fault, not like you knew what was wrong, didn't tell them, then bought it, you didn't have a clue the guy didn't know what he was doing, that's how I got my snapper pro 50, and my time master, I had bought the timemaster for 50 bucks, fixed it all up, put in key start, and now it's awesome, 3 months later the kid called me, and asked for it back, cause he sold me the wrong one, I told him I fixed it up completely, and installed key start, if he wanted it back it would cost him 1500.00, loke I said their loss is your gain, learn how to diagnose properly, and you won't loose a perfect machine because of a fuse, great fix and great video.

    It's always good when it's just a fuse. Nice job Bob, and all the testing, inspecting and cleaning gives peace of mind in verifying that it's in fact only a fuse. Nice video!

    • @miklomorales4768

    • @philliphall5198
      @philliphall5198 Рік тому

      That’s the biggest problem, it’s going to blow again from drowning to much power like bad clutch or wire problems or connectors

  • @waynestefinashen239
    @waynestefinashen239 2 роки тому

    A simple fuse now that was lucky just wonder how it blew, maybe by boost starting with a vehicle battery and the vehicle engine running causing too many amps and thus the blown fuse? Nice inspection and clean up of the wiring while checking thought.

    • @doublewide6

    Voltmeter check ohms across pto leads can tell you if it has burnt windings causing low resistance and high voltage draw that can drain battery. 2-4 ohms is normal.

    I have a Toro Reelmaster 5610. The problem with it is that it raises the cutting decks sometimes and sometimes it won't lower. And sometimes it is completely dead on the lever. Does anyone know what I should be looking for?

      I don't know I mowed with it a few times and had no problems. I may have popped the fuse when troubleshooting.
