Belt won't move. It says to reset safety switch. Can't find the switch

1 start problem --check safety switches ---2 check and inspect belt and pulleys

Starting instructions per manual.

1. Make sure bypass rod is pushed in.
2. Sit in seat.
3. Make sure mower is disengaged. (See Engaging and Disengaging Mower in the OPERATING section.)
4. Lock the park brake.
5. For automatic models, put transmission shifter into center slot.
6. Parking brake - ON

If it still doesn't crank, cycle the safetys.

1. Parking brake - OFF/ON
2. PTO - ON/OFF
3. For automatic models, move shifter out of center slot then back.
4. Seat switch - Rise from seat then sit firmly.

If still no crank, check battery charge is at least12.5VDC. If battery ok, then likely a safety switch has failed or misaligned. Try rotate and hold ignition switch at start position and see if moving safeties allows crank. Move out/in seat, pull PTO switch on push off, move brake to off then back on. Other possible causes include fuse, ignition switch, relay, poor circuit continuity (power, control, or ground).

Check to see if you have fuel to the rail, if not you have to reset your fuelpump safety switch or a bad fuel pump.

If you have fuel, check your spark.
No spark check your timing belt.

Hi Patti,

I saw your problem above for the first time just now. Not knowing what was going on before I can say that you might want to look at the door switch.

Most dryers that I have seen will not allow the drum to start or continue to spin if the door is open. This is a safety feature nearly every dryer (or washer for that matter) employs. If the switch (or associated wiring or circuitry) fails to send or detect the signal that indicates the door has not been closed, it will not start.

I hope this helps & good luck!

It\'s right where the shifter cable goes into the shaft, look
right next to the steering cloumn under the hood,the switch
won\'t keep the car from moving tho,it just wouldn\'t start.But you
could look there to make sure the cable hasn\'t broken or come
unhooked. The cable goes to an arm about 3 inches long just
make sure the arm moves when shifting.

Duralast/Neutral Safety Switch

This could be the problem. If your dash indicator is showing reverse but the transmission is in park it could be the safety switch. I'm not talking about the safety switch in the transmission though. In automatics they put a second switch to kill the starter from engaging. You need to adjust the linkage. If your shifter isn't actually on the column but the indicators are there is a cable that attaches the floor shift to the column and that is adjustable. Put the Floor shifter in Park and turn the column section nearest the dash by hand until you find park. Then adjust the cable length as needed. If all you have is the column shift it is still a cable adjustment. Set the emergency brake, drop the shifter to low 1 and adjust the cable linkage by loosening it on the transmission and manually move it all the way to low 1 then tighten it down then move the shifter to park and repeat teh adjustment process to verify that it is properly aligned. Lock the linkage back down and see if the vehicle will start, if it doesn't move the shifter to neutral and try to start the vehicle if the vehicle starts then check the column shift safety switch at the park position to make sure it is still in place and working. Typically, if the vehicle won't start in Park or Neutral it is more likely to be the Transmission neutral safety switch.

First check your battery, it should be around 12.5 volts, if not it is the battery. Because you changed the deck belt, is the mower a manual engaged deck? Make sure the safety switches are working properly. Seat switch, brake switch. When trying to start, do you get 12 volts to the starter? If not, check the 20 amp fuse.

first check the door safety switch,, if its bad the dryer won't run,, if that checks out ok, its time for a new switch for the start button, to check these, and do the door switch first, unplug the door safety switch and place a jumper wire between the 2 wires leading to the switch, try starting the machine making sure your away from any moving parts , if this works, replace the switch, if it stays the same, do this same procedure to the switch for the start button

Did you check this FIXYA LINK below? Appears to have lot's of answers!

Also I WATCHED the YOUTUBE video I recommended and NOTICED his DRIVE BELT is WAY too loose! Methinks THAT is why his dryer has problems!

Be SURE your belt is not to aged because they can STRETCH and then TRIP the "RESET SWITCH" he's talking about. Note the way his PULLEY shakes so violently... AND the action of the belt itself...
