Lawnmower turns on immediately after plugging in MM2000 Black Decker
Once plugged in, lawnmower (Black and Decker MM2000 corded) will start itself and won’t stop until unplugged even when bail lever is up. When I separated the switch (https://www.ebay.com/itm/365473010435) from all wires and tested with multimeter, there is continuity between the screw where the black wire was screwed in and where the other terminal with the black wire and rubber insulator was before it was removed. Same with red to green. So both bottom and bottom / top to top have continuity. When the switch (which is normally connected to the bail lever) is pulled, the top to top aka red to green continuity is disrupted. The bottom to bottom aka black to black is not however. I am still learning about how all this stuff works so any ideas on next steps to figure out how come this lawnmower isn’t properly starting up safely would be helpful.
Ist dies eine gute Frage?
