Mend Yardman Starting 2002 Turn

Starting the engine on a 2002 - MTD Yardman Garden Tractor?

MTD Yardman Garden Tractor - The engine will not turn over. Battery is fully charged. There is power to one side of the solenoid. When you try and start the engine there is a high speed clicking sound from the solenoid but no power to the other side to feed the starter motor from the solenoid. I have replaced the solenoid and this fault is still there. Any ideas !!!!!

Bad engine or battery ground, or low battery voltage. Short the 2 heavy solenoid contacts with a screwdriver or similar. If the engine cranks, there is a problem with the solenoid or the trigger circuit. If it doesn't, the problem is with the starter or the connections to it or the engine.
