Columbia Switch

When interlock switches are working properly, they will keep the engine from starting if there is no foot is not on the brake or if the parking brake is not set. When the switch breaks, it will not allow current to reach the starter even when the brake is on, which means the engine will not start. If the solenoid is not clicking when the ignition key on the tractor or mower is turned, the interlock switch is likely to blame.
