  If your Ariens Lawn Mower engine won't crank or start, several factors could be at play. First, ensure that the safety interlock system is properly engaged and not faulty. If it is faulty, check the safety interlock system. Next, verify that the fuel tank isn't empty and fill it if necessary. A discharged battery could also be the culprit, so charge it. Check for poor connections between the battery and cables, tightening them or cleaning any corrosion. Lastly, inspect the spark plug wires for looseness or replace faulty spark plugs. If all else fails, there may be a faulty electrical system or engine, and you should contact your Ariens dealer.
