    582 DEAD. Cannot get starter to turn.

    So I got it going. I found how the previous solenoid was a little different than the new one. The posts for S and I are opposite. This was not initially observed. I just wired the new as the old. Hence no results. In taking off to return to store I discovered the mistake. Re-installed correctly...

    582 DEAD. Cannot get starter to turn.

    When I jump battery to starter it turns. When I jump terminals on solenoid the starter turns. So I will go get another solenoid?

    Large terminal has power. I will now jump the poles to see what happens.

    582 DEAD. Cannot get starter to turn.

    So I ran a jumper from the bolt holding the solenoid to the negative terminal on the battery. Turned the key to start and still have no click or any sound from the solenoid. Power certainly is on the small terminal when the key turns. Not sure what to do next.

    582 DEAD. Cannot get starter to turn.

    Lock brake. Turn key. Nothing. New battery newly charged. Got solenoid based on the wisdom above in this thread. When key in start position, power goes to small terminal on solenoid. Solenoid makes no noise, closes no circuit to starter. So I replaced Solenoid. Power still comes to small...

    582 DEAD. Cannot get starter to turn.

    Sad to say here I am again needing your help with my electrical problems on my old 582. Last October I got wonderful advice. I just read through it all again. Everyone was so generous with help. I am so grateful. However my Cub is still not running. I put in the solenoid in the dead of winter...

    I did use jumper cables to connect to the power and the starter. Tractor started just fine. It is now in its new shelter. So now I must find the replacement part. I appreciate everyone's help. Dan in Richmond, VA

    Thank you Tony! The light is bright when the alligator clip is on negative terminal and the key is turned to start. I will look for an old Ford solenoid. So should I try to jump to start the tractor so I can move it?

    I have determined that the starter is good. It turns the motor over, but as I had the key in the off position there was no chance of starting. Maybe I need to be more courageous to do this with the key on?

    582 DEAD. Cannot get starter to turn.

    Tony, thank you! I did the jump from the battery to the small terminal on the solenoid. No noise. No clicking. The lead I was using was bolted to the battery terminal, then as it was a solid copper wire, I held it against the terminal, using considerable force to get a good connection. Nothing...

    Thanks Brian I will do that in the morning.

    582 DEAD. Cannot get starter to turn.

    Thanks for the encouragement Scott! I did put a jumper between the two leads of the switch. Nothing happened. I discovered that when I turn the key switch to start, the current coming down the orange/black wire shines the light brightly for an instant and then dims. But when I do the jumper, no...

    Is there any reason not to bypass the safety switch other than safety? I need to move this rig.

    Thank you, Kendal! I have had a test light for years, and have been using it. I have just determined that when the key is in the start position I get power to the safety switch. however it does not pass through the safety switch. Looks like I may need a new one.
