I assembled my new poulan 541zx zero turn mower and it will not start

Check functional operation of the brake relay.


Wiring diagram is in the operators manual. See link.

Give this link a try. Once you have the belt diagram, and the right belt, it has to fit.

Hello Donna,
I would remove the battery and have it tested at a local parts store. It sounds like the battery to me.

I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/layne_0fccff498c319c32

New or used unit? If new can you return it ? If not you will need to take the recoil assembly off the engine and rewind the spring. Check inside the recoil assembly to see if the spring is broken or just popped out of place on either end. If it is broken your done. You will need to find a Poulan dealer to get a new spring. If new take it to a Poulan dealer for warrenty replacement. If you want to try to rewind the spring look to see where one end of the spring fits into the housing and the other into the spool. On the edge of the puley should be a notch. Place the rope in the notch and turn the pulley it in the direction needed to wind the spring about 4 or 5 turns. If it now pulls all the rope in you are done.If not put the rope back in the notch and wind the spring tighter till the rope is all pulled in.

If the recoil assembly has three screws holding it in place, remove them, lift the recoil assembly off and see if it works off the mower. If it does, reassemble.

First, make sure that the STOP switch is in the RUN position.
Secondly, if necessary, it may not be too difficult to replace the cord or recoil assembly.
