1220 electrical
 

Another new guy from michigan, just got a free 1220 from a old guy down the road. He said the motor was bad and I have a almost new motor on a 95 Husky, so I took it as a project, but all I really want is a mower to take up to my 10 acres in northern Michigan. I was looking for a electrical diagram for this tractor, the first thing I discovered was the solenoid was missing as I tried to hook up a battery and the thing was turning over pretty good and creeping forward. It has been sitting inside for about 4 or 5 years. Any help would be appreciated

Welcome to our Forum.........:Welcome2:

There are two different Wiring Diagrams for the 1220 depending on the chassis serial number. What is your Serial Number...???

The serial number on my 1220 is 132720.

Here ya go........

Thanks a lot for the wiring schematic R Bedell. I see you are from mid Michigan, I live in Owosso. I put a solenoid on the tractor and can at least turn it over by the key now, but I suspect the n/c seat switch is stuck or broke since it doesn't open when I set in the seat. I would of thought that switch would of been a n/o switch, but thanks for the help and I'm sure I will be posting again.

I "assume" your 1220 rolls over but will not start.

The Seat Switch has nothing to do with the motor starting up. It is a Elec PTO safety device.

IF the above condition exists, I would suggest checking the Ignition Switch.
