Possible Causes
Grass, roots, or debris jammed in right wheel, Damaged right wheel motor, Worn wheel bearings, Loose wheel hub or axle
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Press STOP, turn main switch OFF, and wear gloves before handling the wheel.
- Lift and inspect: Tilt the mower carefully and support it securely. Inspect the right wheel for stones, twine, or packed grass between the wheel and chassis.
- Clean thoroughly: Remove all debris using a brush and small tool. Rotate the wheel by hand; it should turn smoothly without grinding.
- Check wheel attachment: Ensure the wheel is firmly attached to the axle and not wobbling excessively. Tighten fasteners if loose.
- Test on flat ground: After cleaning, place the mower on a flat area and restart. Observe if the error reoccurs.
- Motor replacement: If the wheel still binds or the error returns frequently, the right wheel motor assembly may be failing and should be replaced with a Husqvarna-compatible drive motor.
