I have a new Simplicity Citation zero turn with less than 10 hours. I turned off the PTO leaving mower running without setting parking brake and I stepped off the mower to close a gate. Mower safety lock out worked as it should and killed the engine and set the blade stop brake. I restarted the mower and every time I released the parking brake the engine died. I finally started the mower and then unplugged the safety switch on the brake release so I could move the mower back to my shop. Deck brake is engaged and when I activate the PTO it does not release. I am assuming that somewhere there is a diode or resistor switch that has gone bad.

Any suggestions, with this being a long weekend my dealer will be closed until Tuesday.
