Starter Solenoid (Greensmaster 3300)
The starter solenoid used on Greensmaster 3300 ma-
chines allows current flow from the battery to the engine
starter motor when energized. This solenoid is ener-
gized by the TEC controller when the ignition switch is
in the START position. The starter solenoid is attached
to the left side of the rear frame beneath the hydraulic oil
reservoir (Fig. 63).
Testing
NOTE: Before disconnecting and testing starter sole-
noid, test the TEC controller outputs with the Diagnostic
Display (see Diagnostic Display in the Troubleshooting
section of this chapter). If the Diagnostic Display verifies
that the TEC outputs are functioning correctly, consider
that a problem with the starter solenoid or circuit wiring
may exist. An open or shorted controller output (e.g. a
failed starter solenoid, an unplugged connector or a bro-
ken wire) cannot be detected with the Diagnostic Dis-
play. Conversely, if the Diagnostic Display verifies that
the TEC outputs are not functioning correctly, consider
that a problem with controller inputs, controller fuses or
the TEC controller may exist.
1. Park machine on level surface, lower cutting units,
stop engine, apply parking brake and remove key from
ignition switch.
2. Disconnect negative (black) cable from battery and
then disconnect positive (red) cable (see Battery Ser-
vice in the Service and Repairs section of this chapter).
3. Note wire locations on starter solenoid for assembly
purposes. Disconnect cables and wire harness connec-
tors from solenoid.
NOTE: Prior to taking small resistance readings with a
digital multimeter, short the meter test leads together.
The meter will display a small resistance value (usually
0.5 ohms or less). This resistance is due to the internal
resistance of the meter and test leads. Subtract this val-
ue from the measured value of the component you are
testing.
4. Apply 12 VDC directly across the solenoid coil posts
(steel). The solenoid should click as the solenoid coil is
energized. Make sure resistance across the main con-
tact posts (copper) is less than 1 ohm.
5. Remove voltage from solenoid coil posts (steel). The
solenoid should click as the solenoid coil is de--ener-
gized. Make sure resistance across the main contact
posts (copper) is infinite ohms.
6. Resistance across the solenoid coil posts (steel)
should be approximately 13.5 ohms.
Electrical System
7. Replace starter solenoid if necessary.
8. Connect positive battery cable to one main contact
post on starter solenoid, starter cable to the other main
contact post and two (2) wire harness connectors to so-
lenoid posts.
9. Connect battery cables to battery. Make sure to con-
nect positive (red) battery cable first and then connect
negative (black) cable.
