Here are some things you need to check to make sure your mower is ready to work. There are safety points that will not allow the mower to start if not setup correctly. These mowers at Home Depot: mavely.app.link/e/kWeLdgyBXHb. Also, you can get better priced batteries here: amzn.to/3goZ5Ii

Ryobi 40v Lawn Mower Won't Start - What to Check and Why
More about nothing...
How I fixed my issue with the Ryobi cordless mower. My mower would turn on, but randomly shut off once I made a turn or sudden movement. My model does not have the red safety button which many others have been troubleshooting. After about a month and a half of applying the fix, I have not had any issues. I hope this helps. Ryobi lawnmower shuts off fix. Stuck with a brand new lawn mower that won't start. I show how to fix intermittent shutting off issue with Ryobi 40v cordless lawnmower. I just used a T30 torx bit and tightened both handle's at the base. The screws become loose and prevent the handle bar from pushing in on/off safety switch.

If none of this fixes your issue, you may have what we had last year where mice got in the mower and chewed up the wires.

If you ran over something and mower stalled and wont start- it is because the Mulch Plug is loose and is not properly installed. Take out mulch plug and reinsert and push down handle all the way into place. This has helped me three times. (Also make sure handles extended all the way and sturdily locked in place.) I love this mower.

So I took the chute cover off, and found a bit of limb debris within the chute that I cleared out by hand. I put it back in place, and it started up. Another little thing to check out, just in case.

I love this video! Our friend mowed our lawn and I thought he lowered the handle. I also thought I had followed your instructions. "Fulled extended"? After watching this video several times, I followed the instructions. Duh!! I also thought it was the battery. I was going to buy another one. Thank you for the easy-to-read ( but not followed) instructions, for the fact that we do NOT need to pay for another battery and that my dogs will now wander into the yard!

Thanks! Checked the key, battery, bag sensor (replaced mulcher with bagger) and no luck. The handle does have a tendency to retract but usually it comes unlocked and I just pull it back out and lock it again. But it must have vibrated closed. Quick fix. Thanks!

There's no dealer anywhere near me. This product is getting way too frustrating; I may just return it (80 mile round trip). I get so tired of buying just about anything and it doesn't work or doesn't deliver its promise. There's no quality control anywhere with any product anymore. I suppose the customer is the quality control department.

I had one of these older Ryobis before getting a newer self propelled. This one never popped the handle extension locks. On my first mow with the new one it took me fifteen minutes to figure out why the mower kept stopping after fifteen seconds of run. Apparently the newer lever latches bump to the unlock position easy if you brush into a fence walking your mower back.

@@SeidelRanch I think the intention was to make it easier to lock the handles in position. The older ones you had to pull against a tensioner or twist which required a little more finger strength. The new ones offer no resistance to setting or unlatching at all.
