Thank you so much for your video. My husband was at work and I was going to mow the yard and it would not move. After watching your video, I went out and looked and sure enough the belt had come off the top pulley. My hand was small enough that I used a screwdriver to get it back on the pulley and I got the yard mowed. I’m very thankful to you for letting me know what to look for.
@@k-dyi4365 at the time it was stuck at the bottom of my property downhill and I didn't have access to a 4wd vehicle. It was about 10 minutes from raining and it rained for it a few days non-stop. I was able to use this video and get my mower running, get it into the barn, and get inside right before the downpour.
Thanks for a great video that gets straight to the point. Unfortunately for me, I have the husky YTA 24v48 and the gas tank is over the rear drive belt instead of the battery. Is it possible to get the belt back on from the bottom (without removing lots of parts) if I jack it up ?
I just got this mower fixed for another $400, mowed for an hour and now it won’t move. I’ve spent over $1000 this year alone in repairs. I’m so over it. Hope this works.
I had an older husqavara with the manual trans 15 yrs, sold it to my uncle to buy a new one hydrostatic, the biggest piece of junk mistake I've ever made ! That changed the color of my mowers to JD green !
These huskavarna model riders have plastic transmissions do yourself a favor and don’t spend your money on them.. my brother in law has regretted it now for 2 years so many drive problems
This may be true, but I bought mine without knowing, but it's been good for 16 yrs being a country mower, pretty rough usage. I'll buy a better quality next time but can't really complain. It'll mow grass about 2 ft higher than the hood. I hope mines just a missing belt.
I have a YTH18542 lawnmower wont go in reverse or forward. Belt is in place from what I have seen, when it starts rolling down the hill the brakes don't work, and it will move sometimes with the blade engaged. It has me stumped, possible my transmission is going out?
What model is your mower , I need to replace my variable speed pulley and it’s same as yours but mine is mcculloch but that pulley looks exactly as the one I have .
my arien rider did this it was spinning but belts were slipping i got a can of belt dressing and sprayed the belts and pulleys and back to norm . i've had my mower maybe 5 years or more and never sprayed the belts , what was i thinking .

After watching several videos yours was the first that actually fixed my issue. Straight forward with no BS. Thank you for saving me costly repairs.
Thank you for sharing this video, saved me 250-300€ in repair cost 👍🏼
You Sir are awesome. Thank you very much. I had my head in my hands as well when the belt slipped off (I didn't know it was the belt at first). 🙂
Great video! I put mine up on my oil change ramps instead of taking the front off. Got it fixed in 5 min! 🎉🎉🙌🙌
Excellent!
Thank you for this video. Had the identical problem. Fixed within 30 minutes.
Thank you for the vid! Got her moving again. Something so simple!
Glad it helped!

Literally same here ! My junk stopped moving. I just changed everything to

2,400 hundred dollars for 3 years service ! 😠
Good basic info to know. This happens a lot.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the tip. I hope this is my problem.

Wrong, dont by a name brand product JD, Husqvarna from big box stores ! By them from their respective dealers ! ask me how I know ?

hi, thank you, that was my problem, it popped the belt off the pulley. thanks again.
You're welcome!
Have any idea? I have reverse but no forward movement. The pedal is loose in forward and normal in reverse.
THANK YOU!
Thanks man, this worked.
Okay Great, I’m glad👍🏿

So sorry for the late reply, not sure but it’s probably the linkage from the pedal not engaging the transmission
Thanks for everyone that replied, my issue ended up being a missing axle key on the driver side.

So sorry for the slow response, didn’t see the comment. My mower model is the 22 HP, 46in (Mulcher) with Briggs and Stratton engine.
my arien rider did this it was spinning but belts were slipping i got a can of belt dressing and sprayed the belts and pulleys and back to norm . i've had my mower maybe 5 years or more and never sprayed the belts , what was i thinking .
Well you didn’t know
Thank you
Can’t see too much dude
Get rid of the gloves man.
