- In this video I share what I finally discovered having to do with in issue with the parking break on my Husqvarna Z254F Zero Turn Mower that has been frustrating me for the past 2 mowing seasons. Very simple fix. But you don't know what you don't know.

Thanks for the video, I figured it had to be something simple. I didn't have luck with just being able to get on the nut and tighten, I had to cut off I torx bit and use a bit ratchet to get into the small space they left to get on the other end of the bolt.
100% confirmed that this fixed the same exact issue on my z242f. Thank you for sharing this, I can now sleep in peace
Omg THANK YOU! Exact same problem for me on my z248F (same model but smaller deck), searched and finally found your video.
Well, brother. Thanks a lot I just did what you said and it Steers, way better than what it used to.
Dude- You’re my new best friend! Such a simple fix to a very- very annoying problem. Kudos and thanks for posting.
Thank you two minute fix....
Thanks brother!!!! Had the EXACT same situation....
Actually, I just watched your video last night. Got up this morning and in less than 5 minutes fixed my Husky 54. I too have been fighting it for the last 2 seasons. God bless you for putting out info that did help several of us. You gained a subscriber.
Side note: how come it seems to only the left side that is plaguing us? I can't see under there either, but can hear a spring sounding off as it is expanding, like it is lightly rubbing on something. Could it be supplying tension for both arms but affecting the left more because of the way it is hung? I'm 72 and will have to wait for younger helpers that can get down there to figure it out.
Thanks again for sharing your video.

Fantastic brother! Thanks for putting that on here. I had the exact same problem.
Thanks for the video. I had the same issue. Tightening that bolt seemed to fix it!
Thanks a Million man have the same Mower and Same Problem
Thank you so much for this information! I’ve have had my Husqavara zero turn 4 years and for the last two years this problem has drove me nuts!!! Can’t wait until I try this! Thanks again for this video! Have a great day! Gary
Spot on! Thank you for posting! I have had the same issue for about three mowing seasons on a Z246. Usually it would sputter and shut off if I didn't hurry to engage the arms after starting it up. Did what you suggested and now it runs like new.
You are a life saver. I have the exact same model and the EXACT same problem that drives me crazy. I'll give this a shot as I'm convinced there might be a manufacturing defect in the support arms for the left handle.
Thanks again and hope to report back success tomorrow!
Success? Same issue and I'm about to give it a shot.
Thank you. I think you helped me with mine doing cf the same thing.
z248F - same problem - thanks for sharing!
I have a z246 with the same problem. Had to turn it off to get up and move objects. THANK YOU SIR!!!! Subscribed!!!
We had the exact same problem, and this fixed it. THANK YOU!
Wonderful! Been having this same trouble for about a year now. Running out to try it now.
Thank you for taking the time to make a video! Have a blessed day.
👍
I have the same problem, will implement your solution tomorrow!
Perfect Timing! Great video and explanation. I'm working on a Z254 right now, exact same issue. Fixed thanks to your video. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing. So happy to have helped. That was my hope with this video. So frustrating when you can’t find anyone else having the same problem with a specific product. So happy it matched your particular issue.
Thanks same issue appreciate the video
OOOOOOOOO i can't wait to try this. Mine just wont register its in park to even turn over and start.
Thanks for the video, I am having the same issue. And that is what I was going to do also, but my problem is that the bolt turns while I am trying to tighten it and the bolt head is a Allen. And no room to get an Allen wrench on it.
Thank you so much!
Thanks that was very helpful
Thank you.
Thanks bro!
I'm having the same issue I hope this fixes it
I had the same problem on my z246 left handle. I did tighten the arm retaining nut, but it keeps coming loose. I don't know what else to do at this time.
Any thoughts on how to fix when the mower dies after you bring both arms in to start moving.
Maybe you can help me. I'm going to try this. My issue when I pull the arm in to go forward it shuts off?
I just bought a new Z254F (returned, prev purchased). It has a good battery but doesn't turn over. Parking brake/seat safety switch?
Sorry for the delay. Just now seeing this. Yes possibly one of those switches. Could also be something with the ignition switch.
Also check the relay under the ignition switch. Sometimes that relay will vibrate slightly loose, which can cause that issue.
My Z254F dies when put into gear. Don't know why.
Check the switch under the seat. If it starts, it knows it's in park. If it won't run with the blades engaged, it thinks the seat is empty.
My problem with my husky is the axles are both locked up after the customer let it sit for a year. I'm thinking it's the parking brake that's frozen in the transmission so I've been watching videos about parking brake problems. Even though your title says parking brake, it's got nothing about the parking brake in the video. Maybe retitle your video.
