Dixon Lawn mower battery keeps dying
If your Dixon lawn mower battery keeps dying, start with the battery itself. A battery with one or more dead cells may take a charge but still will not stay charged, so try charging it with a charger first. If it still drops voltage, replace the battery. If the battery tests good, move to the charger and make sure it has proper voltage output with a multimeter, and check that the outlet has power and has not tripped a breaker. Next, look at the alternator, which supplies voltage while the engine is running and recharges the battery. A weak or failed alternator can cause a riding mower battery will not stay charged even if the mower starts normally. After that, test the voltage regulator, since a bad regulator can keep the battery from receiving enough charging voltage and lead to a mower battery not charging or a lawn mower battery drains problem. For the exact Dixon battery, charger, alternator, or voltage regulator that fits your mower, enter your model number on RepairClinic.com to match the right replacement part to your machine.

02 - Dixon 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 - Dixon 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 - Dixon 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.
