This is Machinehead's wife. It is night in Qatar and I am trying to diagnose why I can't get it to start. I tried jumping the battery with jumper cables as per Kevin's instructions this morning with no luck. He wanted me to go ahead and run the new battery cable from the battery to starter, which I did. I applied new diametric compound to the electrical connections and made sure everything was good and tight. There doesn't appear to be any corrosion at all. Which isn't surprising since I have only mowed with it twice since my husband cleaned everything before he left in January. What do I do now? The battery is charged. It won't turn over at all not even intermittently.
