Preface, this is a friends saw and I'd like to help him.
Friend bought a brand new 545 xp mark ii saw from a box store. No service department for the saw. He has had it for a couple months but finally got around to needing it.
Halfway through his first tank, he finished a cut and was walking to the next cut, just before hitting the throttle, the saw died. Just like someone hit the kill switch.
He called around to get warranty work done to it as it's literally a couple months old. No one will do warranty service as they did not sell the saw. Box store can not help with warranty and said to contact husqvarna.
Took as much plastic off as possible and found no wires cut, severed, unplugged, grounded. Nothing looks wrong.
Is there any way to test the electronics on these saws not being a dealer?
Husky premix and bar oil used. - muffler pulled and P/C look new as they should.
Saw will not start cold now either. There is no fire.
Anyone have any ideas on something to check to fix it? Or past experience dealing with Husqvarna warranty?
Thanks for any responses.
