OK so yea, my Husqvarna YTH 180 mower stalls when letting off the clutch/break or engaging the blades.... other than that it runs fine!
So here is what i have done so far...
1. When replacing the belts on the deck, I ensured that all moving parts are working as they should, nothing is seized up.
2. Replaced the Seat Safety Switch
3. Replaced the PTO Switch
4. Replaced the Safety Relay
5. Replaced the Clutch/Brake Switch
6. Replaced the Battery (because the other one was dead, not because I thought it was the problem)
Still stalls when trying to engage the blades or letting my foot off of the Clutch/Brake.... I am absolutely baffled here... The only other thing I can think of is the electronic clutch is bad. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!!

Naw, it shouldn't be that bad!!! Just for fun, unplug the little wire going to your coil and see if it runs. You will need to choke the engine off, but you will get your grass cut.

Post the numbers off of your engine for starters.

The problem is likely around the seat switch area, but go ahead and cut your grass for now.
OK y'all, I kept reading about the seat switch, which I already replaced, so I thought maybe it was not depressing enough to simulate someone in the seat... so I took the switch out of the seat cranked it up, depressed the button all the way and it stalled as soon as i engaged the blades or released the clutch/brake.... so for shits and grins, i tried to release the clutch/brake without the seat switch depressed... NO STALL, I immediately engaged the blades and it worked... weird huh??? Like the seat switch is working opposite of the way it is designed!
