    John deere 455 mower. Blades go on and off as mower is running. Y?
    I have a 455 John deere mower. When I pull the pto switch the blades engage. But as I keep mowing the blades kick off and on. Put new pto switch in. put new battery on. Voltage from alternator is good. Could it be the pto solenoid? If not then what?
