    Hi, I have a CastelGarden 12.5HP ride on lawnmower ( 24 years)

    It starts every time, but For the past year the Battery light intermittently comes on when driving.

    It can come on /off itnermittently sometimes if i Change gears / lift the deck / engage blades / open the grass box .. it will come on / off.

    It sounds to me like a loose connection - but I think the battery is still charging as it starts first time every time.
    I've searched every where for a loose connection, but cant find anything ?
    Does anything know what the issue might be ?

    thanks

    I have a 190xt for the last 12 years and the battery light has been coming on for the last 2 or 3 years, my thinking is the battery is just not as full as it used to be and when there's a a pull on it , it shows up. Other than that it starts every time. I put it on a trickle charge over the winter to keep it from draining.
