Advanced Electrical Troubleshooting

Fault location was found with a wire tracer.

As more complex designs utilizing more wires and electrical components have been introduced into new equipment, the need for electrical repairs has increased. Although diagnostic tools help with finding some electrical problems, experience, a full understanding of how the electrical system is functioning, and a knowledge of the most common failure types for the system at hand, are usually needed for efficient troubleshooting. In some applications, component failure will be the most likely cause of electrical problems. However, in many other applications, most electrical problems will be due to poor electrical connections or wiring harness damage. We have the tools and access to components to perform your electrical repairs the right way.

Mowers Won't Mulch Rope!

This is something we see very often, bright colored baling twine wrapped around mower spindles. Some customers may be intentionally mowing over rope thinking that the mower will cut the rope like grass. After mowing over the rope and seeing it disappear, many probably don't realize that the rope has most likely wrapped around the blade spindle. The type of rope shown is durable enough to wear away both aluminum and steel. Over a period of time it can actually wear away at the spindle housing. It can even wind its way up to the lower bearing and bearing seal and wear away at both. After this happens, the lower bearing of the spindle will fail and the entire mower spindle may have to be replaced.

If you see any type of rope or twine laying in your grass, do not mow over it. Under the right conditions and over a period of time, it can cause expensive damage to your mower.
