  The start motor may fail to turn when you turn the key in your LS tractor due to several reasons: the start safety switch may not be contacted, so depress the clutch pedal fully; the PTO switch may not be in the “OFF” position, so place the PTO switch in the “OFF” position; the battery may be discharged, so charge or replace it; the terminal may be loosened, so tighten it; the key switch may have failed, so repair or replace it; or the start motor itself may have failed, so repair or replace it.

  If your LS tractor engine overheats, it could be due to a lack of engine coolant, in which case you should supplement it. It may also be caused by bad fan belt tension or a broken belt, so adjust the belt tension or replace the belt. Another possible cause is dirt attached to the radiator; in this case, clean the radiator.
