Exmark Mower Electrical Problems - A click or hum when turning your ignition key is an indication to check your solenoid. Another indication your exmark mower solenoid may be bad is when a wire attached to your solenoid. My exmark z with 60 deck and 25 horizontal shaft kohler starts hard. Seems to run ok once running until engaging mower then cuts out, misses and back fires. Thought i had it. I can tell a couple of safety swithces are. Battery and cables are good. I think the problem is in one of the safety switches, or maybe on the kill circuit. I can not get it to turn over when turning the key. I have replaced both. Check the fuses and both 20 amp blade fuses are blown. Replaced both and go to start engine and all i get is a clicking noise. Check battery and it is showing a charge of 32%. The fuel tank may be empty or the fuel.
