it's an older machine maybe early 2000's (I bought it at a yardsale like 3 years ago) and always ran good until this year. The mower wouldnt start after i cut my dads lawn a while back, same thing, dead key/no start (turn the key and nothing at all happens) so he took it to a mechanic who said he bypassed all the safety switches to get it running again. It worked and we brought it home and cut the grass a few times. Now go to use it again and turn the key and nothing. Fully charged battery, just nothing at all happens when the key is turned. I jumped the solenoid terminals under the seat and she fired right up so I thought i had a bad solenoid, replaced with a new one and still nothing, just the dead key.
Any ideas on what i can do or where to look?
