Further to my earlier posting, it is helpful when looking for advice to post the symptoms your tractor is presenting, if these symptoms have just suddenly occurred etc.
On some models the stop solenoid is only powered for a few seconds to STOP the engine.
If you study the material I have provided you will learn if your model is one of these.

Tested with meter or test light? If meter, try it with a test light.

Good call, but do check the ground connection, too. I don't know how that beast is grounded, but a bad ground would give the same symptoms.

Thank you very much for all the information you have given me. I tested the solenoid with a 12v car battery and it made the pin retract in as it should, but when in tractor it wont retract the pin. Bad ground does sound like a very likely problem. I will check it out Your help is very very much appreciated.
