How It Works
This single pole plunger type switch has two terminals.
When the unit is shifted in reverse while the mower
blade (PTO engagement lever) is engaged, the reverse
switch opens and will stop the engine, unless the
KeyChoice switch has been operated.
Testing
1. Disconnect the switch from the wiring circuit.
2. With a multimeter, check the continuity across the
terminals. There should be continuity.
3. Depress the plunger on the switch and check the
continuity across the terminals, there should be
NO continuity (Figure 192).

KeyChoice™ Reverse Operating
System Module
Purpose
The Key Choice™ Reverse Operating System module
works with the KeyChoice™ switch, PTO switch, and
the reverse switch. It responds to the reverse switch; if
the override switch (KeyChoice™ switch) is not
activated and the PTO is engaged, it will stop the
engine (Figure 193).
