Tractor was working fine, got off to load some stuff in the bucket and it shut off. It won't turn over now, all the lights come on like normal, but the starter isn't getting power. It's a 2012 model, no past issues. I'm thinking it's a safety switch somewhere. Put in a few hours trouble shooting today, had to call it a day when it got dark out. I wish it came with a wiring diagram.

Is the starter Getting power? Is the tractor a Hydro Static?

Didn't check the starter wiring yet because it was running fine with me off of it when it shut off. Nothing on that circuit would cause it to shut down. I did check the seat switch even though that wouldn't cause it either. I was working in some nasty overgrowth so I figure it could be something under the floor in the pedal area. It is a hydro system. All the wire connections under there were good, I couldn't how or where the petal switchs were. If course where it's sitting is all muddy and full of pricker bushes and such.

Check the wiring at the neutral safety switches.

Is the PTO light on when you turn the key? My 33D has a PTO switch under the left side of the platform and it was disconnected in some brush once. Check all the wiring under the platform.

Check the Hydrostatic safety switch. push in and release the pedal as it may not be in neutral.

Have you gone through all the fuses to see if any are blown?
A blown fuse will tell you which circuit is bad.

With daylight came the obvious. It was the switch that the forward petal hits. It was bent about 2" away from where it should be. What I figure happened is that a few months ago we got a log jammed up under it and bent up quite a few things. Dealer had to come and get it. They must have put tape over it to get it going, got to the shop and fixed all the bent up metal and leaking hydro lines and forgot about that switch. Yesterday the tape must have come off. In looking at everything I did find a relay under the dash that the wires were not connected to. No idea what that would be for, everything has been working fine. I hooked it back up, haven't noticed anything not working.
