    Are we to assume this is a lawn tractor or what? Brand and model would help since some safety switches are intended to be open when you are seated while others are closed. If you have a continuity tester you can test the switch with the two leads, sitting and then sitting should show open and then closed or vice cersa

    Good point DG. My directions should help you determine if your switch is bad or not. I too am not feeling comfortable helping you jumper them since they are safety switches. Test them and replace one or both, they are fairly cheap
