I have a 2015 Ariens Platinum SHO 24 with a AX306 engine. My starter is spinning but not engaging the flywheel. Hand start works fine.
1. What is the easiest way to access the starter for removal and service? Other posts indicate it isn't so easy but don't show how. One post has links to a diagram but the link is dead
2. From other posts, there seems to be some indications that these starters have problems. Is this true? If so, what is the usual fix? I was thinking some lubrication would do it but am now wondering, do they usually need to be replaced?
Very appreciative for any help I can get
