Casey, I read your post again. You sprayed water, most likely shorted out the fuse. Do you think water had anything to do with it?
Why spray water on it? Water is against my #1 rule. Yes, grass will get on deck. I use leaf blower to clean it off.
Park stinky mower in shed away from house. Never use water.
I pressure washed my old tractors to paint them. Water got in engine, tranny, hydraulics, even rear end. I was careful, not careful enough, to keep it out.
Hope you learned a lesson, no water on mower. The used mower I picked up at Lowes with less than 5 hrs, may have had the same issue caused by the first owner washing it. The starter solenoid was shorted out blowing fuses. Water and elecrical don't mix, period.
Take it back and have lowes fix it. If you are worried, buy an extended warantee from Lowes.
I glad I did when I purchased a whrilpool washer from lowes and tranny bearing went out in less than 2 years. Got a full refund on washer.
IMHO, you have a good mower. I just used mine, 333 hours. Runs great.
Think about this for a moment. Most mowers are made from off the shelf parts, even John Deers. You have a choice of 3 engines, a few different trannys, 2 diffrent front axles, electric or manual mower clutch. The parts are very similar is not the same. I have an old John Deere GT275. Good mower, has tiller. My daddy alwasy said JD's were painted green because green is the color of money. I think JD's are pricey and not really that much better. I love my JD. They are good, but not worth more for a used one than you can buy a new husky for. george

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
