I have been fussing and fighting with my L130 for a month (It sat for 3 years or so). Anyway, I did continuity tests on all the saftey switches, charged and recharged the battery, then finally replaced the starter solenoid/motor, and the damn thing still would not crank. Well, after watching this video, I discovered that the relay going from the battery to the solenoid had 12.6V, but the relay from the switch to the solenoid is exactly 0.0V. I tried that trick you did by drawing current directly from the battery to the terminal for the switch and Viola! It cranked. So long story short, this video helped me drill down the problem to bad wiring, now I just need to figure out how where its screwed up, which should't take long. Thank you! This video was exactly the tutorial I needed!

Your comment gave my the chicken lol goose bumps.. its always a treat to hear that my videos helped someone figure out their issues and track them.. I am so proud of you for researching and not giving up and thankful I could be on the list of vids or people that helped you fix it. Keep up the good work and thanks for letting me know and for subscribing

Nice relatively simple fix. I'd keep working on it, charging the customer and fix all that home-boy wiring mess. My JD L120A project is finally finished. Left cylinder head valve guide had to be fixed. Rebuild the carburetor, and replace both ignition coils. I was into $400, and sold it yesterday for $1600. Took me over 2 months to finally get all that above mentioned sorted out, waiting for parts to arrive, had to wait on the machine shop guy who was on vacation, foul weather, etc all contributed to taking a long time to get it running and ready for sale. And it was well worth it.

Ya don't wrap stranded wire around a post to attach it. Do it the right way: put a terminal on the wire and attach the terminal to the post like it was intended to be!!

Helpful video about diagnosis and repair. Did you ever try Hipa accessories for the small engines? Maybe we could collaborate?

Yes I put a little addendum at the end of the video explaining I disengaged the trans to free wheel when we pulled it off the trailer and forgot to re-engage.. then drove it to show it was good. Thanks for checking in

The new intro causes me to instantly hit STOP, thumbs DOWN, and DO NOT RECOMMEND ANYTHING FROM THIS CHANNEL. I don’t need my ears insulted with that kind of CRAP. I click for content, not blasting noise. I can watch commercials on TV if I want that.
