My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Riding mower electrical issue

11 years ago

I have a new battery, solenoid, and starter just put on my riding mower. When I try to connect the battery back up, sparks fly and the mower tries to turn over and start....even with the key off and taken out. Any thoughts?
