My old 1999 MTD mower's clutch/brake does not allow me to start the mower unless I depress it hard - like fully down. I traced the pedal to the interlock switch (man they could have not put it in a much more difficult place to get to). Anyway, I notice that the button on the switch has to go all the way in before it will work, versus working like when it's pushed in half-way. So I'm planning to replace the switch, but I thought I'd check here to see if anyone has experienced this and would be able to advise. Any words of wisdom would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
