Safety switches on a XR3032h/XR3037H

[windcatcher]

Hi folks. Long time member, but I haven't posted in a good while. I'm back to having problems with my LS XR3032H. I bought this tractor new in 2014 from a now defunct dealer. This tractor has been a nightmare's nightmare. It has been in the shop over and over since I originally bought it. I had to get an attorney to get LS to pony up and repair a bunch of issues and LS still would not extend the warranty. Fast forward to now. This tractor only has 212.3 original hours on it and it's down again.

I had a diesel mechanic look at the tractor yesterday and he's been able to get the tractor started by bypassing some of the safety switches. I need help in finding where the safety switches on this thing are located so we can continue trouble shooting. We know about the one under the driver's seat, but there have to be more elsewhere. Supposedly an XR3037H will have the same kind of safety switches and possibly other models of tractors too. Please help us if you can.

Much appreciate folks.

If it's like mine, neutral safety switch/seat switch/pto switch/and brake switch (i believe). see if the attached helps you or your mechanic.

I *think* your tractor is a bit above mine in size and a few other things, but I'm hoping I can use these PDF's to help us out. According to your documents, your neutral safety is on the dash, whereas my shifter is to the lower left by the driver's seat. No biggie, I just have to remember that. You mentioned the brake switch. Is that the foot brake or the parking brake? I do know that when I turn the key to the far right to force a startup condition, my parking brake led/light goes dim then out, then it comes back on, though not as bright as I think it should be. My brain is zeroing in on the parking brake switch right now, but I'm not going to say that's all of the problem. I do appreciate your help. This may be a great help to us in the long run. Cheers!
