1450 quit

[jim turner]

Mowing along with 1450 and all of a sudden dies and won't start, got fuel in tank fire to the plug what else?

 

[Eugene]

Fuel to and in carburetor?
Compression?

 

[jim turner]

found the problem I had intermitting fire so found out bad ign switch one of the terminals just broke of. looks like a bear to change.

To get easy access to the ign switch remove the gas tank and fire wall. Remove the throttle and choke cables.

got her fixed, but now it isn't charging when I first started it up with new ign switch the amp hand went to full charge then I revved it up and it quit charging, what now?

 

[Eugene]

Guess. Rectifier and or error in wiring the ignition switch.

 

[jim turner]

the switch is a simple plug and play and it is keyed you can't plug it in wrong
so probably rectifier

 

[Stanton]

Jim, the plug at my rectifier on my CC 782 (KT-17 series II) was loose; battery not charging. Had to do some bending of prongs to get them to stay in place.

Hope that’s all it is.

 

[BigBill]

My cadet doesn’t charge all the time. It stays in the middle on zero. Are you sure it’s not charging? Is it going negative on the needle?

 

[jim turner]

Bill when I turn the tiller on it goes negative and plus it runs the battery down it is a new battery
