So we have a L3130 model LA513 we use it every day. Went to start it the other day for chores and it won't start. When you depress the clutch and turn on the key the instrument panel lights up but not all the way. Like it turns yellow but non of the information comes on. It doesn't click when when attempting to start. I don't know what to do the dealer is so expensive. Wondering if anyone else has had this problem before?

clean your battery terminals as well as where the ground cable connects to the frame. it sounds like you might have a bad ground.

you can connect a jumper cable from the neg battery post to a clean spot on the engine. If the problem goes away, suspect a bad battery ground cable. Your battery might be charged but could still be the problem. Batteries cause some strange things.
