    I searched on here and could not find exactly my issue. I sit in the machine,put the seat belt on and start the machine. The pedals do not unlock. With the machine still running I unlatch the seat belt and re latch it and the pedals are free and the machine works fine. It works fine until i shut...

    LX 565 intermittent start, makes a click sound when it does not start

    I was unable to find that in a search."lx665 wont start". However I had my son try to start the machine and hold the key in the start position,and at that point I gently taped on the starter with a hammer,after several taps the machine turned over and started.With this information do you believe...

    Engine compartment door

    I just spoke with my dealer. He told me that they drill out the hole on the door side of the hinge and put the next size up bolt in its place.He told me the bushing is made of steel and most often does not were out.I'll be checking mine in the AM.

    Engine compartment door

    Can anybody tell me if there is supposed to be a bushing of some kind in the hinge for the engine compartment rear door.The bolt on mine seems to be tight, but the door moves up and down about a 1" or better.I have to pull up on it when I latch it.

    LX 665 Parking Brake

    I figured that the brake lever that you pull up on was popping up when you drive and bounce around.So I welded a little tab on the machine and installed a spring,to keep the lever down while the machine was in use. But the problem still persists.I don't know if it is from having the brake on...

    LX 665 Parking Brake

    I have a 99 665 with about 1500hrs. I owned it since new. The problem is with the parking brake. Ihad it back 3 times in the first year,and the dealer was unhelpful to say the least."It was out of adjustment" Was all I heard.They said I must be running it with the brake on.I took it in the...
