How to fix a Stihl RMA 460 V Lawn Mower that does not start?

  Scott MitchellAug 18, 2025
  If your Stihl Lawn Mower doesn't start, it could be due to several reasons. First, ensure there's good electrical contact between the mower and battery by removing and reinserting the battery after visually inspecting the contacts. A low battery charge can also prevent starting, so charge the battery. Extreme temperatures can affect battery performance; let it warm up or cool down to between 50 °F and 68 °F (10 °C to 20 °C). A blocked mowing blade can be the culprit; increase the cutting height and clean the mower. In lower grass switch on the lawn mower. If the LEDs continue to flash, the battery or the lawn mower has a malfunction and must be replaced or checked by a servicing dealer.

  If your Stihl Lawn Mower cuts out during operation, the battery might be too hot or too cold. Remove the battery and allow both the mower and battery to cool down at ambient temperatures between 50 °F to 68 °F (10 °C to 20 °C). Also, a blocked mowing blade could be the reason. Increase the cutting height and clean the lawn mower. Switch on the lawn mower in lower grass. Reduce drive system speed and push the mower forward more slowly.

  If the LED on the charger of your Stihl Lawn Mower battery glows green, but the battery isn't charging, it might be too hot or too cold. Allow the battery to warm up or cool down gradually to ambient temperatures of about 50 °F to 68 °F (10 °C to 20 °C). Ensure you're using the charger in a dry, enclosed room with temperatures between 41 °F to 104 °F (5 °C to 40 °C).

  If your Stihl Lawn Mower cuts out during operation, it could be due to several reasons. The mower may be too hot (pull out the activation key, remove the battery, allow the mower to cool down, clean the mower, avoid frequent on/off cycles, select a lower speed if using the wheel drive, walk slower if not, increase cutting height, and mow lower grass). Alternatively, the blade could be blocked (pull out the activation key, remove the battery, and clean the mower). Finally, there might be an electrical malfunction (remove and reinsert the battery, then switch on the mower).

  If the charging process doesn't start when you insert the battery into the charger, it might be because the battery is either too hot or too cold. To resolve this, leave the battery in the charger; the charging process will automatically begin once the battery reaches the appropriate temperature range.
