On the lawn tractor, the solenoid is located near the battery under the left rear ‘fender’.
The solenoid, which is usually located near the starter, is easily found by tracing the red wire from the battery positive terminal directly to the solenoid where the other end of the wire attaches .

The starter solenoid is a small magnetic device located inside the starter motor. When you turn the ignition key to the “Start” position, the battery sends a small electrical charge to the starter solenoid. The solenoid closes a switch, resulting in a greater amount of current being sent to the starter.
It is generally located between your vehicle’s ignition module and the engine. Solenoids (also commonly called starter solenoids or starter relays) work by receiving both large electrical currents from your vehicle’s battery and smaller electrical currents from the ignition system when the car key is turned.
Touch both large connectors at the same time with the metal shaft of a screwdriver. If the engine cranks and starts, the solenoid is defective and should be replaced. If the starter does not run, the motor itself is probably defective.
Bypass starting uses a wrench or screwdriver to touch the terminals of the starter motor, a tractor solenoid, or other device. This bypasses all tractor neutral start switches. Sparks fly and electricity collapses when the circuit is closed, the starter engages and the engine fires.
On our current ride-on mowers, the fuse is located either: A) under the hood, behind the steering dashboard. B) Under and behind the battery, under the seat. Note: The battery may need to be removed to access this fuse block.
Farm machines have a safety switch by the clutch brake pedal that you must fully depress when starting the mower. Additional safety switches are located next to the lift and shift levers and under the seat.
You’ll know if your mower solenoid is working when you hear what happens when you turn the key while starting the mower. You should hear a click as the solenoid engages. If this noise cannot be heard, your faulty starter motor solenoids have a problem and need to be repaired or replaced.
The solenoid takes power from the battery and converts it to the amount needed to start the Briggs & Stratton engine. The electromagnet is mounted on the frame of the machine between the battery and the starter.
What is a lawn mower solenoid? A lawn mower solenoid is a type of on/off switch. It is an electromagnetic switch that is actuated to engage the starter and crank the engine. The solenoid is mounted on the starter.
If you can easily access the solenoid valve without removing the starter then there is no need to remove it. Be sure to keep the screws you remove in a safe place so you can reuse them when reinstalling the starter.
