Like any power switch you have Power in, Ground, Switched Power out and the Switch Terminal.
On a riding mower, the solenoid typically has two main terminals: one for the battery and the other for the starter motor. The positive battery cable connects to one terminal, while the cable leading to the starter motor connects to the other terminal. Additionally, the solenoid may have a smaller terminal for the ignition switch or starter switch wire. Always consult your mower's specific wiring diagram for accurate connections.
I assume you are talking about the starter solenoid: Follow the positive battery cable from the battery - the other end will be connected to the starter solenoid.

The solenoid on a riding mower serves as an electromagnetic switch that controls the flow of electrical current to the starter motor. When the ignition key is turned, the solenoid engages, allowing the battery's power to reach the starter, which in turn starts the engine. Additionally, it helps protect the electrical system by preventing excessive current from damaging components. Overall, the solenoid is crucial for the starting process of the mower.
Look for loose connections at the battery, starter solenoid, starter and switch. If all connections are good, the starter solenoid probably needs to be replaced.
There is normally a second starter-position solenoid under the clutch pedal. It probably is not getting contacted when you step on the pedal.
I assume you mean a starter solenoid. Look at how the old one is hooked up. Put the new one in that way. ...and disconnect the battery first.

Look for a loose or corroded battery cable. If the cables are ok at the battery, check the connection at the starter and at the starter solenoid. Otherwise, the solenoid may need to be replaced.

Depending on what model mower you have, there could be several problems. But, start by checking the fuse. Most mowers have a fuse that is located near the starter solenoid.
