Ariens Lawn mower battery keeps dying
If your Ariens lawn mower battery keeps dying, start with the battery itself because a dead cell is the most common reason a lawn mower battery drains or a riding mower battery will not stay charged. Try charging it with a charger first. If the battery still will not hold a charge, it is likely defective and should be replaced. If the battery checks out, move to the charger and verify it has proper voltage output with a multimeter, and make sure the outlet has power and no breaker has tripped. Next, check the alternator, since it supplies voltage while the engine is running and recharges the battery. An Ariens riding lawn mower charging problem can also come from a bad voltage regulator, which can prevent the battery from getting enough charging voltage and lead to a mower battery not charging during use. Testing these parts in order is the fastest way to narrow down the failure.

02 - Ariens Lawn Mower Charger
To determine if the charger is defective, use a multimeter to test the charger for proper voltage output. In addition, test the outlet used by the charger, and ensure that the outlet has not tripped a breaker.
Highly Likely
03 - Ariens Lawn Mower Alternator
The alternator provides voltage to the lawn mower while the engine is running and also recharges the battery. To determine if the alternator is defective, use a multimeter to test the alternator voltage output according to the wiring diagram.
Highly Likely
04 - Ariens Lawn Mower Voltage Regulator
While the engine is running, the voltage regulator sends the proper amount of voltage from the alternator to the battery to keep the battery charged. If the voltage regulator is defective, the battery won't receive enough voltage, causing the battery to drain quickly.
Highly Likely
