Hi all,
I have a JD LT150 bought brand new around 7 or 8 years ago. Never had a problem with it until now.
Tractor starts fine with the foot brake locked but when I let off the brake the engine stalls out. I can start the engine, then unplug the foot brake safety switch and I am able to let off the brake and move the mower which leads me to belive that it is some sort of safety switch issue..
Here are some symptoms:
Last fall (5 months ago) my stupid brother broke the front plastic bumper so I had the hood / cowl completely off to replace the broken plastic. At that time I may have disturbed some type of hood safety switch that I can not find.
I replaced the brake safety switch and the seat switch already (these were cheap so it wasn't a big deal)
I also looked for frayed / chafed wires under the hood and found none.
Any ideas where I should look next?
