I think I might have the same problem. I’ve repalced the solenoid twice and it will start several times with new solenoid but then will not. When I take solenoid off and turn key the solenoid rod will pull in and go right back out. I can push rod in with my finger and it will start working again. What the heck. Was the thermistor hard to replace? Thanks Dan

I am considering buying a John Deere 4600 with 1800 hrs. on it. I noticed a very slite leak out of a breather hole in the bell housing and the clutch is hard to push in. Other than that the tractor looks great. Anybody have a recommendation or idea on these issues?

Hi, I have a 4600 and its a great machine. Over the last few years i’ve had starting issues related to the fuel shut off solenoid. The problem is a thermistor located behind the fuse panel. When the key is turned on, full power is sent to the solenoid to open it then the thermistor goes ‘open’ and allows low ‘hold’ voltage only so the solenoid doesnt burn out. Basically, the thermistor is screwed and there is a TSB for it… no more problems!

I have 2 John Deere 4600 and they are both pieces of junk. Plastic Crap. They both have issues starting hot or cold. My 1965 Ford 3000 is more reliable than piece of crap that John Deere makes. Thank you for the tip on the selenoid.

Well, if that’s the worst problem you’ve had in 5 years, I’d say your John Deere has treated you quite well. You should probably alert your neighbors to this fact. We don’t want any of them calling the loony bin to collect you when they see you heading outside to plow the driveway with a hair dryer….

Congrats, I’m jealous!

While you’re there, drop into any respectable looking pub and have a meal of wiener schnitzel and beer for me. Since the beer is quite good, have an extra, just for me.
