I had the same problem with my original starter. New one from dealer was $220 plus core
If that don't work look at your wiring to the ammeter and ignition switch

I guess I had 2 problems. One was the wire to the wrong terminal on the solenoid. The other was a bad wire going from the big terminal on the solenoid to the switch.
After moving the neutral saftey switch wire to the correct terminal the tractor wouldn't start. I would put the meter on it and it would show 12 volts.
I would pickup the switch ( I had it out of the dash) and turn the key and nothing. After several attempts and checks. I found I sometimes had 12 volts other times had none. I took the wire off and found the end on the wire was loose. I guess when I would pickup the switch the wire would move just enough that it wouldn't make contact.
After I fixed the loose connection and put it back together it started. I started it about 10 times just to make sure.

Thanks everyone for your tips.

Joel
