I went to start my mower and it acted like it was going to start then just cut off. The battery and spark plugs are new, but now it won't start or make a sound. What can I do to fix it?

I also have a murray and mine did the same thing. If your problem is the same as mine, look under the seat. There is a wire with a 20amp fuse (yellow one). Take it out and see if the wire inside the fuse is broken. If so, simply replace and start it up. Mine does this at least once a year and usually first thing in the spring.
