New Batt, checked all connections. Dash lights work but hit key and then nothing. Seems to do this when it has been sitting for a while. HELP!!!
SOURCE: I have a John deere 317 tractor that does not start.
We will be testing for voltage to the points, coil, engine to tractor wiring harness, ignition switch
Tools needed:
volt meter to read 12 volts, or test light
1) with the points open: is there voltage at the connection wire at the points
If yes; adjust points to .020" and try to crank engine and check for spark
*** you may want to determine if condensor is connected to this wire also
if no
2) check point side (neg or - ) of coil for voltage
if yes, engine should start
if no
3) check for voltage at the + side of coil
If yes, coil is bad
if no
4) check wire connector from engine to frame wiring harness
if yes; engine should start
if no
5) check wiring on the back of ignition switch
if yes; engine should start
if no
6) check that ignition switch RED or BATTERY supply wire has voltage
if yes; switch is bad
if no
7) check supply wire and circuit breaker connected to the battery side of the solenoid
if yes; engine should start
if no; circuit breaker could be at fault or wire connector at battery supply

SOURCE: John Deere 2010 utility tractor, lights come on
1) Battery condition and clean cable connections
2) Check the voltage & connections at the solenoid
*Is full battery voltage found at the solenoid?
3) Does the small wire that activates the solenoid from the ignition switch/safety switches have voltage when the key is in the start position
a) voltage yes, but it does not start; suspect solenoid
b) voltage no, inspect and check all safety switches for voltage to and from each switch
c) safety switches do NOT have voltage to them: inspect connections on ignition switch and check for voltage coming into the switch from the battery.

SOURCE: Have John Deere 165 riding mower. Strong crank,
Has it been outside? May be water in the fuel.
SOURCE: problem with John Deere L120 tractor
Park brake switch is the most likely culprit,any other would cause the tractor to not turn over in the crank position.
