I was just using my 2450 and shut it off but now it won't start. My little niece was on it playing around with all the buttons but I thought I new where the safety switches were the hst pedel has to be in neutral and the park break has to be on. I tried that and I removed and cleaned the grounds cleaned and checked the fuses, tried boosting it, still won't engage the starter I have no idea please help!!!

I the seat set all the way down in, I know if I turn the seat to use the backhoe I have to wiggle the seat to set it all the way down when I switch it back in drive mode.

Make sure the PTO button is OFF (down)....easy thing for a kid to grasp and pull up on. Will not start if pulled up/engaged.
