Hello,

I have a White Outdoor LT-1850 Lawn Tractor (MTD). After jumping the
mower because the battery was dead the engine will now not shut off
even if you use the switch. To shut it down you have to disconnect the
battery. After this you can connect the cables back to the battery and
the engine will start up, once it starts up there is a loud buzzing
noise and another thing is the PTO loses function. My first idea is the

starter soleniod is bad. Any ideas?

Paul

If it won't shut off, I would suspect a bad ground first and then a bad
switch. Where is the buzzing coming from?
