While bypassing the switch will allow you to run we need to find a long-term fix. I see a few comments here that the newer JDs have the switch mounted between the pan and the body rather than inside the seat foam, my BX series mounts the switch next to the seat springs at the rear of the seat. This got me to wondering, how hard would it be to install a switch at the seat springs, or do these tractors not have springs?

My BX uses a switch beside the right coil spring. There are 2 paddles, one mounts to the body and the other to the seat frame above the spring. Only issue I ever had was when a small stick jammed in it and held it on even with me off the seat. I'll try to snap a pic of it over the weekend unless someone else beats me to it! HINT HINT!

I know I'm not the one signing off on the warranty claim, but that looks like a warranty issue if I ever saw one! Glad to hear they're going to make it right!
