So after 2 days of sitting, my TL130 has an issue. It started fine, but when I close the safety bar, nothing comes alive. No controls nothing. The gauges (fuel, temp, warning lights) are working, but also I noticed the horn was not working. I fiddled with the safety switch on the end of the lap bar for a minute before shutting the machine off and looking under the hood for anything obvious. Nothing stood out, so I tried firing it again to try again, this time it would crank and crank and not start. I proceeded to check the all of the fuses in the panel below the passenger side stick (all were fine) then I checked the big fuses by the battery, all were fine. So I suspected the fuel cut off. I’m not 100% on normal operation on these but I unplugged and checked voltage. One wire (presumably ground seemed fine) one was constant 12v. And the third seemed to do what it should, powers on with key, powers off when Ignition is off. I pulled the entire solenoid assembly off and moved the connecting spring. The machine now fires up. (But I have to manually pull the shut off to kill the engine, which tells me the solenoid is bad) but now the machine is running, however still no controls. No horn, nothing but gauges. Is there some sort of common issue With these units that seems to fit the issues above?
