Safety switches

I am pulling my hair out trying to figure this out. I have a Husqvarna YTH21K46 with a Kohler SV610-0212 engine. It seems the safety switches aren't working in sync with each other. When I hold the clutch safety switch in, the mower will start and engage the blades. When I let go of the switch the mower dies. When I am holding the button in while the mower is running and release the brake the mower dies. Can someone help me please?

There are 2 sets of safety switches
Seat + clutch = stops idiots reaching down and cleaning the chute with their hands or sticking their feet under the deck or getting tangled in the pulleys & belts on top when mounting & dismounting
Seat + brake = allows you to get off without turning the engine off to open gates, move things on the lawn etc.

I have tested the seat switch also and it is good. I tested it and installed a new one, it still does the same thing. Is it possible 2 switches may be bad at the same time?
