Lawn mower will only crank but not start and only when hooked up to cables
Hi everyone, I have a Craftsman limited edition vts riding mower that had continuously had problems. Here's my current problem: the last time the mower ran successfully was two weeks ago. Fast forward to today, I'm a knuckle head and left the key on so the battery was dead. I jump started it and it started and ran just fine, then I shut it down to hook up my aerator. I get on and it won't start again like the battery is dead, so I hook it back up to the cables and now it will only crank and crank and crank but never start. What possibly could've gone wrong in the 5 minutes it wasn't on? Thanks in advance!
Is this a good question?

@mower_dud besides a totally discharged battery check to ensure that you have enough fuel and that your mower gets fuel to the engine.
