Does all depend on what brand engine....
You may have a hot wire grounding out somewhere
Use a screwdriver, pliers or wire and touch both posts at the same time
The wire that goes to the starter button can be connected to the power wire coming from the battery. Just tough the wire quickly. If the solenoid engages the starter, then it is ok. If not, then there is either no power from the battery of the solenoid is bad.
Bypass the switch with a jumper & see if you can bump it with a hot wire.
Likely a ground that goes to chassis.
yes run wire from ignition coil to bottom of seat use spings or whatever you not to make the wire ground to the seat pan when rider exits the mower this will automatically shut the engine down when rider falls off to save yourself some time and cash just go and find a 2 wire seat switch off of an old riding mower and run one end of wire to coil and the other to common ground
The answer will depend on what engine is in the mower. If it is a single cylinder more than likely it will be in the front of the engine. If it is a twin cylinder the plugs wille on the sides of the engine. Either way look for a thick black wire going to it about the thickness of a pencil. It will be what that wire goes to on the lower end of the wire.
Large positive cable to the canter post on solenoid, if you have one wire left it goes to the small terminal nearest the engine. If you have two wires left, the wire that goes to the coil + connects to the teminal on the solenoid marked R and the other wire goes to the remaining small terminal.
