A while back I posted about my 240U not starting when it was real cold. Never got around to trying due to all the cold and hurting my shoulder and couldn't lift anything for a while or do much at all. Anyway, after a couple weeks of pain pills, prednisone and now therapy, I finally got around to looking at the tractor in 60+ weather. Made sure the battery was fully charged, hit the starter and "click". So either the solenoid isn't making connection, or the starter is already engaged and can't turn, or the starter is bad already. Didn't have time right then to drag tools out and work on it, so hope to get out in a while and try some things. Maybe try by-passing the solenoid with a jumper cable, then pull the starter to see if the drive is "out" and has been engaged, then if all else fails, take it back to the auto-electric shop. Had it rebuilt 1 1/2 or 2 years ago, but has not been used much.
