Interlock Module (Fig. 12)

The interlock module (Item 26) senses the condition of the seat switch, traction switch, and mow/lift switch. The seat switch must remain CLOSED while the traction switch or mow/lift switch is OPEN for the ignition system to operate.

The “closed to operate” requirement of the interlock module makes sure that the engine will not run if switch leads are broken or become disconnected.

Because of the solid-state circuitry built into the interlock module, there is no direct method to test it. The module may be damaged if an attempt is made to test it with an electrical test device such as a volt-ohm meter.
