L3901 no start(fixed)

[KHW59]

My L3901 left me stranded when it would not restart on a dirt road. Could hear the fuel pump engage and had no Codes displayed. Checked the seat switch and all levers for correct positioning along withe switch. No issues found. Fuses were checked with a multimeter and Fuse 6 Starter relay had no power. Pulling the fuse showed it had not blown. Looking at the fuse holder revealed the issue; corrosion. Disconnected the battery and cleaned it out then spray it down with WD-40. Replaced fuse and it restarted fine.
Figured relating this here allows gives a heads up and searchable.

You are very correct about how this could save a lot of time for someone else.

Thanks for posting. My 3901 is only two years old, but it resides in a non environmental controlled bldg and your post reminds me its close to treating my electrical connectors with dielectric grease. Appreciate heads up!!!!!
