Which serves me right for not checking every year variant listed or requesting the full model & serial numbers before doing a search
If you do this enough you will learn as I did ask for all the available info. Here every piece of equipment the comes into my shop gets the model and serial recorded along with the engine info and now the transaxle info. It takes at times a lot of leg work.
My apologies for suggesting Googling a wiring diagram. I could not find it.

I would be very wary of tampering with any safety interlock that has four wires to a simple switch. As we all know, a switch doesn't need four wires. That suggests to me that the interlock has been engineered to defeat rudimentary attempts to override it. Heck, so far that engineering is working because we are all here still discussing how to defeat it.
Well the following isn't for the ULTIMA ZT1 42 but it does show how the same switch is wired on the 2019 and older CC ZTRs. As I said I don't have the 2020 and newer wiring diagram yet.

Oh off to tear down a Honda TRX300 front end.

Can you use the seat safety switch from the original seat?
YOU ARE A GENIUS!!!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!! It works perfectly. You need to understand why this was driving me insane not only the cadet I bought is the new Ultimate series I order arm rest they sent the wrong one's and when I called them to let them know they said let us research the problem and we'll will get back with you. A week later UPS pulls up in my driveway with this HUGE BOX and when I opened the box Cub Cadet sent me a new seat with arm rest. I look up the seat it cost $699.00 and the seat has a built in suspension in it, and I wasn't charged a penny. So that why I was on the phone with everyone trying to figure this out. So again thank you so very much.
