the newer lt80s have a circuit breaker in the start circuit,its located on the right rear frame rail under the plastic..it has a white button like reset.....

also the lt uses a relay instead of a solenoid,its black and near the battery,if the relay goes bad you can test by unplugging it and jumping the two large red wires together with a jumper..
