Hello all,
I have a John Deere Sabre yard tractor, 15.542 Hydra, GXSABAY010292 that I got in and I am pulling my hair out! I have it running, but every time I release the brake/clutch, the engine dies. I have the seat switch disabled and the two wires spliced together. The engine would also shut off because the return spring on the mowing engagement switch wasn't strong enough to pull the mow bar all the way back but that's fixed. So, the only way I can get the mower to move is by taping the clutch switch in so the motor will continue to run when engaging in gear. I have looked under this mower and cannot find any other switches anywhere! Anyone have a clue what might be happening here except that I have a John Deere tractor?? lol
