How do you start a tractor by bypassing a solenoid?In bypass starting, you touch a wrench or a screwdriver to the terminals of the starter motor, to the solenoid of a tractor, or to other equipment. This bypasses all tractor-neutral starting switches. Sparks fly and electricity snaps as the circuit is completed, the starter engages and the engine starts.
What is a solenoid on a tractor?The starter solenoid is a small magnetic device located inside the starter motor. When you turn the ignition key on in the "start" position, the battery sends a small electrical charge to the starter solenoid. The solenoid closes a switch that results in a larger amount of current being sent to the starter motor.
