Why won't my DR FIELD and BRUSH MOWER Lawn Mower engine start?
- B
  Barbara MillsAug 21, 2025
  If your DR Lawn Mower engine won’t start, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the battery is adequately charged by checking the voltage. If low, use a 12-volt, 1 to 2 amp trickle charger to recharge it. Also, inspect the fuse in the wiring harness and replace if necessary. Check the wire connections, paying special attention to the ground connection (the large green wire from the Battery to the Engine), and the connections to the Solenoid. Finally, verify the ground connection on the Solenoid where it bolts to the Frame.
