New Holland TC30 seat switch

[Chad Eby]

My New Holland TC30 shuts off when I get out of the seat. The tractor is in neutral when this happens. It worked perfect this morning. Went out and pushed up some brush and now it dies when I stand up. I tried taking it in and out of gear. Any help is appreciated.

Those seat switches can be a pain when they malfunction. If you follow the wires from the switch to the wiring loom towards the fender, you can put a jumper wire on there to bypass the switch. Mine's been bypassed for years.

Thanks... I will give that a try. At least I should be able to confirm it is the switch

PTO engaged?

Turns out it was a broken wire going to the brake switch. Thanks for the help.
