The Hidden Safety Switch Trick Exposed

This video is unbelievably helpful. I have scoured the internet and this is the clearest and most straightforward troubleshooting video for a very frustrating and annoying problem. One question, do the PTO and starter switches need to be checked? Thx

Leaving praise here too for the clear, logical, thorough explanation of these switches, but also the brevity and understandability of the presentation- MAJOR THANK YOU!!! But it is cool to see that it's a good video when you find dozens of comments praising you already! Followed and liked! A credit to bald eagles everywhere!

Excellent video. Thank you so much. I have an old Bestgreen mower with no cutting deck which pulls small trailer around our property. Very useful it is too. This morning it wouldn't start. I knew it would be safety switch related, but had no idea where they were. As I'd been meaning to disconnect them all at some point, this was the opportunity to do it. Found the under seat switch and afrwe testing with a meter shorted out the two white wires. Still no start. Eventually found the switch under the parking brake - same type of switch so shorted out the same. Still no start. Spent over an hour trying to find another switch - which I knew must be related to the Brake/clutch but I couldnt find it anywhere. Google is my friend and I hit your excellent video first go. 5 mins later I knew where to look, found it, shorted it out and BINGO! She runs perfectly so I finished the job by removing all unnecessary levers and clutter. Thank you so much and best wishes from an Englishman living in France!

Finally someone checking a mower with the solenoid on the carb. Thanks.

What a GREAT video ! You got right into the mechanics, theory, and problem solving in 8 minutes time. This is a lifetime lesson for me. Thank you.

This video is very thorough and well thought out. Thank you!

That was one of the most informative posts I have ever seen. Especially since I have a LT 2000 mower. It’s almost identical. Thank you so much.

Clear, concise and simple to follow instructions Steve, thank you for the video. 👍

Finally…. This test tutorial is absolutely spot on, clearly presented.. after the first view you have plan…me being me, i did watch it twice…. All BaldEagle staff… thank you so much….

Thanks for this. I was pulling my hair out because I am generally pretty good with a wrench or a soldering iron, but it took me an hour to figure out that the circuit for the seat safety on mine was open circuit for on instead of closed.

Good teaching. Precise and to the point. A REAL safety engineer. Thank you sir.

by far the best video on this issue. My mower's issue exactly! Tired of the poor build on these

You're Unusual in that, after only 15 seconds, and that of a relative subject, you're Already Talking about the title subject. Better than unusual, Rare! 🏆 THANK YOU! Subscribed.

Hey man. Just wanted to thank you. Just bought this exact model and it kept dying. Watches your video and figures out it was the reverse switch that went bad. You are awesome!

Great video Steve. This should help a lot of folks In need of some safety switch info.

This is a great troubleshooting tip for the safety switches, thanks for posting.

Seen some new mowers now adding safety on mower chute. Getting crazy trying to fix stuff.
