I like the idea that you started a new thread, but unless I want to take the time to go searching for your old threads. I don’t feel that this is the best use of my time. I don’t have much info to help you out. Things I don’t know.
1. What kind of Snapper are you talking about?
2. What are the units model and serial numbers?
3. What switches are you talking about?
4. Getting an engine to start and run is very different electrically than a units controls shutting down the engine.
5. Do you have any electrical troubleshooting experience and can you read electrical wiring diagrams if we can find them.
Sounds like you are throwing parts at this unit to see what sticks, but I try to help by figuring out causes before telling someone to spend money. Electrical troubleshooting is difficult enough if the unit is my shop, but trying to do it in a forum like this is nearly impossible if I don’t have a good picture of the problem. I’ll be glad to try to help you, but unless I have a better picture of what you have in front of you, there isn’t a whole lot I can do.
