2015, G5500. Let off the clutch and the engine dies. Press the clutch and it runs. What could be the problem?

Most likely a seat switch issue. Does the same thing happen when you engage the deck.

No. Just that. Could it be a safety switch somewhere under the clutch. If it is I have no idea where it is.

If letting out the clutch kills the engine then that switch is working. Seat swith a better place to start.
