I use a open end wrench that is spaced the same as the top 2 terminals on the solenoid and touch it to the top of the terminals to get the motor to crank over and there's no insulation on the wrench you will not get shocked... just thought I would throw that information out there in case someone would possibly be in need of it... Good video..Thanks.
Just curious: did you replace the fuse before touching the 2 bolts with the screwdriver? Mine keeps blowing fuses when I turn the ignition switch to on, not to start. If I unplug the wires to the voltage regulator, it will start and not blow the fuse.
Yours has some extra wires hang up by the back of the ignition switch to i see I still wonder if the ones on mine went to a ignition relay box then to the solenoid because there is no relay box on mine My extra wire colors are blue yellow and black. I cut out all the safety buttons and wiring the yellow went to one prong on the solenoid and the blue went up to the ignition switch they're all cut out now but theres still blue yellow black i already know the black is ground the blue and yellow had to of plugged onto something Mines needing a new coil right now so that's another reason it doesn't start up but after i put in a used ignition switch then all it does is blow out the fuses so i put in a good used solenoid but am out of fuses so ill finish messing with it later on i can't find any other old gray 12/43 huskee mowers like mine to just see the wiring and if it had a ignition relay box or not so im not sure if it did
I have to bypass the solenoid by touching the two bolts to get my husqvarna started every time because the turning the key wont do anything or I have to jump the starter from the tractor battery to get the tractor working. Just brought that ignition solenoid (4-prone) last fall and no continuity is coming from the 2 small bolts where one wire is the trigger wire and the other is the ground. If the tractor can start with the key can you still jump the ignition solenoid with the screw driver (touching the 2 big bolts) when the key is off.
On my craftsmen mowers what would burn out on them was the ignition relay box first then the fuse most the times only the relay would blow out while the fuse still good
Watching your video a third time. I pulled the solenoid and tested it and it seems to work and have continuity. Ignition switch seems to check out. Pulled starter and it spins connected to battery. The one thing I did not do is simply jump the solenoid, which I will try next... After I put all this back together. I've got snow to plow! Useful video. Thanks again.

Thanks so much - I think you just saved my Saturday
I appreciate this video man… I’m suffering the same issue and wasn’t sure where to go. Thank you.

Would a bad selionoid melt the fuse holder?
I get sparks in the fuse holder and buzzing in some area when I try to replace fuse

@@jimstelljes3925 interesting... For me, yes, I replaced the fuse before touching the bolts with the screwdriver.
No, I have installed a new solenoid and new ignition still popping fuses , there is no short anywhere , I am out of ideas 😢
This is a very helpful video. Thank you!!
Mine is odd I replaced the starter solenoid when I go to crank it buzzes then after a few key turns of buzzing it blows the 20amp fuse

Mines needing a new coil right now so that's another reason it doesn't start up but after i put in a used ignition switch then all it does is blow out the fuses so i put in a good used solenoid but am out of fuses so ill finish messing with it later on i can't find any other old gray 12/43 huskee mowers like mine to just see the wiring and if it had a ignition relay box or not so im not sure if it did
Hey did your lights quit working when it went bad
I have disconnected everything , even bought a new ignition switch , gonna kick myself if there is an internal short on the solenoid switch

Going to look at my no start now...

Screwdriver started it fine. Looks like I will buy a new solenoid and a handful of fuses.
