Well the dealer is stumped too. At one point, we had three mechanics crawling on it. We've narrowed it down to something electrical. They think it's a particular diode and intend to replace it in the morning. We'll see.

1ID, thanks and don't let this issue turn you away from it. I've had this tractor for three years and 356 hours and this is the first issue of any kind. Up until Friday this thing has been flawless. I truly love this tractor and would recommend it to anyone looking for a tractor of this size that doesn't need to go into the six series.

I know it may sound crazy but what about the seat safety switch or wiring? Do those models have one? My 110 has about 2 or 3 different seat safety functions depending on if the hoe is attached or using the PTO. Also I weigh around 240lbs and sometimes even I don't engage the switch properly. Gotta stand up and sit down hard again.. just a thick seat not compressing basically. I had my wife (115lbs) on there one day and tractor wouldn't budge...just a thought!

I'm up and running again. Final diagnosis was a faulty diode and a bad PTO micro-switch. Ran it for a couple of hours tonight and all seems to be back to normal. Thank for the advice.
