I have a new M5640SU with about 17 hours. I was moving dirt with my back blade and the tractor quit. It won't start. The Pto sensor light is showing on the dash and won't go out. Anyone have this problem?

Try engaging and disengaging the PTO a couple of times, if that doesn't work your going to have to find the Safety switch and adjust, repair or replace it. In the mean time you can bypass the switch to get you going for now. ;)

Looks like it's right below the cover just under the handle.
Just unplug the two wires going to the switch and plug them into there self to by pass the switch.
But please replace the switch ASAP if it's bad, wouldn't want you to have a safety problem later! ;)
