I haven't tried this. I'll check this out and let you know. Thanks.

I'll check this out-thanks.

Well, I guess it doesn't matter too much--I just turned the key on with that diode in my hand and got the same angry buzz. Dang...

What symptom would show up if diode on starter relay is bad? I just tested mine and I'm wondering... I tested with multimeter set at continuity-I should get open with leads in one position, and closed if I reverse them, right? I get open in one, and different readings each time I switch- some...

Thanks for the reminder. It does sound like a ground issue, or a possible short. I checked, cleaned coated with anti-ox goop the grounds from the battery (both ends of the cable), ground strap on engine, and transmission. I tested the instrument panel connection ground pins, too, just for good...

I checked the seat switches (operator sensor and rotation) and both show good continuity according to WSM. The harness connectors show proper voltage. Is there something else? How would I check if a safety switch is allowing improper voltage through? ( I am getting full voltage at the relay...

Thanks for the heads up. My pop was an industrial mechanic and found that Wix filters were very good-good filtration medium, excellent bypass and never blew out. NAPA puts their label on Wix and I***8217;m always happy to find them on sale

Thanks for trying to cheer me up, Lugbolt. I***8217;m stubborn enough to keep trying to solve this puzzle, but not stubborn enough to say I***8217;m good at it. (I did remember to load test the battery, though).

Thanks, Jim L. I’m trying to eliminate potential hiding places for that gremlin, and I like your idea of jump wire to help. Yes, the relay buzzes just like it’s not getting quite enough power, but last time I checked (was it only yesterday?) I forgot to check voltage at that relay while...

Suddenly a gremlin made its home in my tractor. After lunchbreak my L39 decided not to start. As soon as I turn key to On, I get a buzzing from relays under dash. Took dash apart, found the Engine Stop solenoid relay was the noisy one. It bench tested fine, so I checked the solenoid itself...
