Removed Orange and Yellow wired from seat switch. Engine starts and runs now with brake released. PTO will not stay engaged now when PTO switch is released to the "run" position.

* Wires in/around the Ignition Switch

Is that correct...??

Next, there are two Seat Switches. One switch (normally open) with BLK & PUR wires, is a safety for the PTO circuit. The other switch (normally closed) with ORG & YEL wires is a safety for the Engine (Magneto) circuit. Thus, a person must be sitting in the seat for the engine to run and to operate the PTO.

AS A TEST........ Remove either the YEL or ORG wire from the seat switch and see if the engine stays running. Report back on your findings.

Seat Switch needs to be replaced.

PTO issue...Could be any of these three things
* Seat Switch (BLK & PUR) wires
* Reverse Switch
* Reverse Relay

As a thought, is it possible that you have the two sets of wires reversed on your Seat Switch...????

That would be very likely knowing me. I can usually find a way to mess things up if I mess with them long enough... I'll check that out tomorrow.

OK....I done some additional research on the Seat Switches. There are two switches. One has a GREY housing and one has a BLACK housing.

925-3166 Switch - GRY - NC action = YEL & ORG Wires
925-3167 Switch - BLK - NO action = BLK & PUR wires

Check to see your tractor is wired this way.

Bingo... Some moron put got the wires attached to the wrong seat switches. :)

Thank you, and everyone for your very appreciated assistance. I will certainly contribute to the maintaince of this web site forum.
