🌧️ My Lawn Mower Won't Start! Troubleshooting and Replacing a Faulty Starter Motor
If you like this video then I'm sure you'll like this too: • This PW50 had no power...Here is the fix
After days of rain, the sun finally comes out, and I decide it's the perfect time to mow the lawn. Unfortunately, my lawn mower has other plans! 😅 The engine won't start, so it's time to grab my tools and figure out what's wrong.
In this video, I troubleshoot my lawn mower's starting problem, beginning with the battery. After checking the battery voltage, charging it overnight, and performing a proper battery test, I discover that the battery is in good condition. So, what could be preventing the engine from starting?
I investigate the starting system, remove the starter motor, and take it apart to find the real problem. Inside, I discover damaged permanent magnets and signs of wear that prevent the starter motor from turning properly.
Rather than risking another failure, I decide to order a replacement starter motor and install it myself. Now it's time to put everything back together and see if the lawn mower will finally start again!
