It is a genuine OEM sourced part is specially designed for riding lawn mowers and garden tractors. The solenoid acts like an electromagnetic switch, it engages and routes the battery electrical supply to the engine starter when the ignition switch is rotated to the start position. Unfortunately, over time it may wear out or get damaged eventually requiring a replacement. Keep in mind this high-quality solenoid is sold individually. You will need a screwdriver and a wrench set to perform this repair.

Easy repair
Part was easy to repair and replace. Works fine. However, mower is still hard to start sometimes so a routine must occur with changing gears, pulling out choke many times etc so it could be loose wires. Hoping to get through cutting season.

It wouldn\'t do anything when key was turned in the crank position.
After installing all the safety switches and still nothing, I noticed that the voltage meter wasn\'t moving when I turned the key so I reached my hand back to wiggle the wires and it cranked right up. I guess it had grounded the mower.
Very easy one nut to disconnect solenoid from frame..two nuts to disconnect red wires new part same as old one so everything fit. Thanks for the fast delivery and best price. Easy fix.
Ordered new solenoid. Replaced solenoid after first taking photographs of the solenoid in place.
Started replacing wires, but the wires wouldn\'t reach when the solenoid was being put in place. Looked at photographs and found I had turned the solenoid upside down. Took wir
... Read morees off, turned solenoid 180 and replaced wires according to photos No problems after that. Motor fired first try and ran well.
Take a photo, or make a rough drawing of wire placement BEFORE taking it apart. Simple but effective! I took digital photos from top and side view from opposite side of installed solenoid. Cel phone photos will work. Stops scratching your head trying to remember which wire went where!
