Im talking about the Deere 420 riding mower. Not the tractor lol.

The 20hp one.

Anyway, we just recently had it "overhauled" by our local Deere dealer. They ripped us off royally.

Anyway they replaced the pretty much everything in the ignition system.

However, now when we have a new issue.

When mowing, the whole unit will try to die. Some type os switch is triggering it to turn off. if you smash the brake petal or flick off the deck with the switch, it will keep the mower running. If not, the whole thing will die.

Ive ruled it to being the switch in the area under the handle on the right that controls forward and reverse movement, but theres something else too... And I cant find it.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
