My 5205 will not turn over. The lights all work including the idiot lights on the dash. Tried jumping it with my pickup and checked the fuses. Maybe a bad relay? The micro switch for the pto seems to be working.

Have you checked battery voltage & cleaned/tightened all 4 battery cable connections? Check trans neutral start switch to be positive it's operating correctly when trans shifter is in neutral.

Voltage and connections are good. Looking for a wiring diagram to check a few things out. The tractor will turn over if we jump across the solenoid but it will not start. Thinking one of the safety switches is not working.

5205 will not turn over

Have you tried driving it on a slope?

Bought the tech manual so I could follow the 12 volts thru the starting sequence. Found the 12 volts did not exit the PTO switch. Put a jumper in for now, will replace the PTO switch later.

Thanks for coming back to post the solution. It will help someone later.
