Rally Switch

This part is a switch in the control system of a lawn tractor or lawnmower that activates the central electrical systems. Known as a starter switch, it is responsible for turning the power on for the mower. If the engine will not start and the electric starter does not engage, the ignition switch may be defective and needs to be replaced. To check an ignition switch, use an ohmmeter to determine if there is any connection between the S and B terminals. If no connection is detected, the ignition switch is the problem. Replacing an old or malfunctioning ignition switch on a riding mower is quick and easy. First, disconnect the battery and remove the bolt connecting it to the negative cable. Remove the ignition switch and disconnect the wire harness attached to the back. Install the new ignition switch, connect the wire harness, and then reconnect the battery. This part is compatible with specific products from popular brands like Ariens, Craftsman, Husqvarna, Murray, Poulan, Ryobi, and Weed Eater. It is a genuine OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer and is sold individually.

An interlock switch is responsible for shutting down the engine if the equipment is running in an unsafe manner. It is a safety component that prevents the engine from starting if you aren't pressing down the brake with your foot or if the parking brake isn't in place. If the interlock switch beaks, the current will no longer reach the solenoid coil even if the brake is depressed. This will result in the engine not starting. If turning the ignition key doesn't result in the click of the solenoid, the damaged part is likely the interlock switch. The first step is to disconnect the battery and then release the steering plate. Next, remove the interlock switch under the hood and install the new one. At this point, the other parts can be reinstalled, and the lawn mower can be used. This is a genuine manufacturer-approved OEM part that is designed for Husqvarna, Ryobi, Craftsman, Dixon, Weed Eater, Murray, Ariens, and Poulan lawn mowers. This interlock switch is made with a high-quality plastic body and is sold as an individual component. A screwdriver will be required to make this replacement.
