Why is my Homelite Lawn Mower not starting?
- J
  jonathanrodriguezJul 31, 2025
  Your Homelite Lawn Mower might not be starting because the extension cord isn't properly connected to the mower plug or the power source. Ensure the cord is securely reconnected, using the cord retainer. Also, check if the house circuit breaker has tripped and reset it. If the breaker continues to trip, consult a qualified electrician. A defective motor control switch could also be the culprit; have it replaced by an authorized service center.

  If your Homelite Lawn Mower is vibrating at a higher speed, it could be due to an unbalanced blade or a bent motor shaft. To fix this, balance the blade by grinding each cutting edge equally. Stop the motor, disconnect the power source, and inspect for any damage. If you find damage, have it repaired by an authorized service center before restarting.
