Solis S24 Seat Switch

[Mitzdawg]

I found the seat "safety" switch to be overly intrusive. I couldn't lean over to watch the bottom corner of my snowplow, nor could I look over my shoulder to see behind me before that little nanny shut down the tractor.

Nanny had to go. I located the seat switch wire easy-peasy on the right hand side of the seat.

It ran under the seat to a connector on the left. Two-wire makes the job easy. Ringing it out showed the switch was a "sit to make a connection" switch.

I placed a connector in the line to jumper the wires together. Easy to undo if I ever feel the need for more stupid tyranny in my life...

Reconnect the connector and now I can lean over, turn around, stand up, do chinups on the monkey bar, whatever! Freedom!

Good to know. I think I’ve disabled those on everything I’ve owned.

I've not found it to be an issue for me and tend to leave the safety items in place unless there is a compelling reason to override. Too many hills and close calls for me in my 10 years of operating experience to think I know better.

My tractor came with no sensors or safeties .

Bout to go do this to my solis. Cant even raise up off the seat to look back to hook up to an implement without it cutting off.
