    Did it work correctly before and then stop with no other changes or repairs being done? Is it possible that the polarity is switched at the battery. Normally this would be a bad starter bendix but you say you replaced the starter and the problem is still there.

    So a brand new starter makes the same sound as the old one, just spinning but not gear engagement with the fly wheel.

    Could easily be the ignition switch. Pull switch and check for melted wires at the back of switch.

    I think you might have wired the solenoid wrong which would cause this fuse problem.

    Just recheck the connections there. That seems to be the only wire catalysts in changes here on wiring. Not sure how yours is grounded so I posted a couple of setups.

    I rechecked the connections, everything appears to be wired properly based on the manual

John Deere L110 won't start [ 1 Answers ]

I have a John Deere L110 that won't start. It's not the battery or the starter. The engine turns over but it won't fire and I have already replaced the spark plugs and it did not help. It seems to be electrical I'm not sure.
