jumpering John Deere safety switch
I have a 2002 John Deere LT150 Lawn Tractor. I have put a blade on the
front for the snow (works great). Unfortunately when I push both the clutch/brake and the blade lift peddle, too much of my weight comes off the seat and trips the safety switch. Not wanting to gain more weight to fix this problem g, I was wondering if anyone knew which wires in the connection under the seat needed to be jumped to bypass this particular safety switch. I want this to be reversible for when I put the mower deck back on in the spring. If there is a simpler way to bypass this particular switch, please inform. TIA -Bill |

TIA -Bill If you look under the seat,you'll see the kill contact(you can hear it click too). The wires running to it can be switched...you close the contact,when you sit. BEWARE..It's not advised,cuz you can hurt yourself. Be careful!! If it's under warranty,don't do it..it will void it! -- -------------------- http://NewsReader.Com/ -------------------- NNTP or WEB - 50 GB/month |

why don't you do the right thing and add rear weight to the unit either
wheel weights or box weights. I do know which wires to jump but sorry I wont tell. it is not safe to bypass the safety switch it is there for a reason. |

NO-ONE, I'm not sure how why you think: A) I do not have weights B) more weights would solve the problem C) this is the "right" thing to do As you obviously must understand the machine since you know which wires to jump, I am confused by your assertion that more (machine) rear weight would prevent my butt coming off the seat as I depress both pedals. (by "unit" I assume you are talking about the machine, not my arse grin) I agree it would not be safe for a total bozo to operate without this particular safety switch, so, could I ask you which wires I SHOULD NOT jump to bypass this switch. Being a total bozo myself, you know I am going to start inserting jumper wires in every plug I find on my machine ....... for no particular reason. So could you advise me where NOT to insert a jumper wire on the seat shut off switch plug? I'd hate to be unreasonably unsafe. thanks for thinking of this bozo's safety. OSHA is looking for a few safety conscious citizens like yourself. -Bill |
