Did you re-attach the ground strap? When I lowered my cradle I had to unbolt a braided steel ground strap.

Nothing at all, like the key is off. Checked my battery 12.6 sitting and 12.6 with the pedal down. Don't know what happened at all.

I didn't have to because it had plenty of slack, I just re-checked it to and it's attached just fine.

Did you check the fuse in the electrical components box?

GOOD NEWS. this was the problem, i assumed the ground strap was the braided steel strap in the front of the motor, i didnt realiZe there was another ground strap on the generator that went to the frame as well. it had snapped off so i replaced it and now we are back running.


thanks guys
