After parking and shutting down, the next day the machine will not crank to start. Good battery voltage; no codes; I can hear two relays initiating when the key is turned to crank. Checked battery connection at the solenoid and found all fuses have continuity. Where to look next? This is an LPG machine, vintage '06

If this is0 a 39x machine then I would suspect the brake switch.
There are 2 brake switches on the brake valve , one is for starter motor relay.
It supplies a negative to the relay to allow cranking.
Even though the handbrake is on the switch may not be closed.
Try pressing hard on the foot pedal and see if it cranks.
Greetings Swoop,
I like the logic. I'll get on it. Thanks.........

you'll want to check the voltage at the starter solenoid 'start' terminal when your trying to crank the engine. It must be battery volts. Anything less and you have a resistance problem somewhere that needs to be resolved.
If you are getting battery volts at the solenoid then the problem is most likely the starter solenoid contacts inside the solenoid. The best solution is to remove the starter and take it to a rebuild shop and have them repair it. Or just order a reman starter from your dealer (they will want the old one for a core)
