    Yahoo Kees went out of business several years ago. Worked on a 60" YK zero turn that had several issues this summer. Electrical troubleshooting gives lots of people problems. It is my weakness but have improved a lot. Good fix again. Sell it in the spring!

      Yazoo are good mowers. In my opinion same quality as exmark. Its a little harder to find parts though.

    My mower was left out in weather for 5 years. Did all the typical tune up stuff and got it running but the blades won't engage at all. You've given me a place to start and I ordered the test light. Thank you!

    Na no worries, a fuse, don't feel bad, their loss is your gain, not your fault, not like you knew what was wrong, didn't tell them, then bought it, you didn't have a clue the guy didn't know what he was doing, that's how I got my snapper pro 50, and my time master, I had bought the timemaster for 50 bucks, fixed it all up, put in key start, and now it's awesome, 3 months later the kid called me, and asked for it back, cause he sold me the wrong one, I told him I fixed it up completely, and installed key start, if he wanted it back it would cost him 1500.00, loke I said their loss is your gain, learn how to diagnose properly, and you won't loose a perfect machine because of a fuse, great fix and great video.

    Nice job Bob, I have a friend that brings his Yazoo/Kees zero turn to me for service, its a good strong mower.

    Nice way to diagnose it. Using a test light or a battery pack like you and some gator clamps, has helped me sort through some electrical issues. Nice job!

    It's always good when it's just a fuse. Nice job Bob, and all the testing, inspecting and cleaning gives peace of mind in verifying that it's in fact only a fuse. Nice video!

  • @BrucesShop
    @BrucesShop ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Nice work Bob. That fuse was in hard to see through. A meter is the way to verify.

    So now you are left thinking what caused the fuse to blow in the first place

    • @miklomorales4768
      @miklomorales4768 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      A shot somewhere right ? A wire frayed wire somewhere shorting?

    • @philliphall5198
      @philliphall5198 ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s the biggest problem, it’s going to blow again from drowning to much power like bad clutch or wire problems or connectors

  • @david5476
    @david5476 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Voltmeter check ohms across pto leads can tell you if it has burnt windings causing low resistance and high voltage draw that can drain battery. 2-4 ohms is normal.

    • @doublewide6
      @doublewide6  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Good tip. I'm still learning, but I did determine PTO was working properly.

  • @waynestefinashen239
    @waynestefinashen239 ปีที่แล้ว

    A simple fuse now that was lucky just wonder how it blew, maybe by boost starting with a vehicle battery and the vehicle engine running causing too many amps and thus the blown fuse? Nice inspection and clean up of the wiring while checking thought.

    • @doublewide6
      @doublewide6  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think i may have blown the fuse when troubleshooting possibly?

    • @doublewide6
      @doublewide6  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Good tip, I think I popped the fuse because I did have power orignally.

    • @doublewide6
      @doublewide6  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I don't know I mowed with it a few times and had no problems. I may have popped the fuse when troubleshooting.

    I have a Toro Reelmaster 5610. The problem with it is that it raises the cutting decks sometimes and sometimes it won't lower. And sometimes it is completely dead on the lever. Does anyone know what I should be looking for?

    I saw your video a few weeks ago on undercoating your vehicle with bar oil from 5 years ago. What's your opinion on it? Would you do it again?

    • @doublewide6

      It works great I do it about every 2 years. It is a pain and messy though.

    Why not check fuses to start ? Electrical did need cleaned up. Poor maintenance.
