Thanks Is the switch the factory original or could it have been replaced by a previous owner the past six decades? If it looks like the one shown in the manual Gary put up and the regular mower key won't fit it may be a Snoopy Key. Tractor Supply or a John Deere dealer may have some.

953 nut 63,984 #6 Posted October 17, 2025 The switch you have purchased is intended to operate with a solenoid. It is only rated at 30 amps and your starter will draw about 50 amps. Do you have a solenoid? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Retired Wrencher 6,378 #7 Posted October 17, 2025 Richard is correct. If you want to bring it back to original I just pick up an original type key from wheel horse parts and more.com. This is this switch works with the start GEN tractors. I hope everything works out. Just take your time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
