Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Husqvarna fuse blowing, husqvarna yth1542xp, amp fuse
QuestionI have a four year old Husqvarna YTH1542XP. After running smoothly for about an hour, it shut off in mid-mowing. I didn't hit anything, no blade problems. No turnover when turning the key. Tried to jump off the battery with my truck, no luck. The dealer said the battery went bad, so I bought and installed a new one - no change. Checked the 20 Amp fuse near the ignition, and it was blown. Replaced the fuse, cranked right up - but fuse blew again after about 5 minutes. Tried another fuse, same thing - blew again after about 10 minutes. Any ideas? Thanks for your help.
Answer Hello Ben:
Check the Entire Harrness for Bare Wires. Check the Bulbs (if any). Check the Charging System for Surges/Spikes in Voltage. The Charging System can Surge/Spike and this Blows the Fuse. Hope this Helps. Let me know what Happens, Please.
Good Luck
