What to do if your john deere F935 goes bad?
I have a F932, the gas version of the F935. There is a switch in the bottom of the seat. I would try jumpering/bypassing it first. I suspect its going bad and when you push on the brake that maybe you are putting just a bit of extra pressure on the switch making it contact. Jumper it out to start with to eliminate it all together as a possibility.
Where is the safety switch on a John Deere?
Locate the seat safety switch on the bottom of the seat. It will appear like a plastic wire harness and be attached to the underside of the seat. You should see two wires running from the engine to the switch. Cut each wire using wire cutters and gather the wires into your hand.
Can a John Deere F935 coupler be replaced?
If you have an F9xx series, and you don’t KNOW that the coupler has been replaced, than seriously consider swapping out the existing component for NEW (no bone-yard replacements -PLEASE- (!) ) That part is highly susceptible to failure, and when it goes, all Hell breaks loose.
Why does my John Deere lawn mower not turn over?
One of the primary reasons for needing to bypass the seat safety switch on a John Deere lawnmower is because the switch itself is malfunctioning. In this case, whether the operator is in the seat or not, the mower will not turn over.
