Replaced Ignition Switch now blades engage but won't disengage

[Manicurist]

Refused to buy a repro ignition switch. Dealers inventory had no branding or packaging to indicate it is any better than after market. But the dealers did have a single brass spade, so I bought it. (after market appear all aluminum). It was after that install that my problem began.
When pulling the blade knob to engage nothing out of the ordinary, no delay the blades engage, but depressing blade button does not disengage the blade. PTO is obviously not the issue as the blades engage. Right? Any suggestion on trouble shooting?
Logical reasoning depressing the knob to disengage, is not being acknowledged. Anything further?

So how do you disengage the blades turn the switch off?

Now yes, that is the only way to stop the blades from spinning. Before this repair, you would push the knob down, blades would stop. When you wanted to mow again pull knob up.

What prompted you to replace the switch to begin with?

Aftermarket switches are a best guess. Did you get it from an actual Hustler dealer or an independent repair shop that only claims it is correct? Not all switches are pinned the same or correctly.

it is more likely that the PTO clutch is sticking or the PTO switch is defective. The PTO switch would turn off the power to the clutch no matter what if it is good.

As for switch unlike Delta switches Indak does not put their PN on their switches so we have to depend on our vendors for the correct crosses so the internal configs are correct.

It is a 2004 model. The key hole was just worn out. Hustler dealer. I have only used OEM on this machine +/- blades. Past 4 years, the parts mostly seem generic or aftermarket. They used to be presented in a branded pouch or bag or tag with part number. Now you get a generic looking no brand no manufacture mark, just a raw part handed to you and you have to trust them it is the number you need. This ignition switch wasn't any different but as I said it did have one spade in brass, and the amazon/on line options didn't, so I went with the dealer full retail Hustler.

And there is only 29 3 position magneto switches and none have a part number on them.

If you read the wiring I posted you see there is no way the new is preventing the PTO from electrically shutting down. Only the PTO switch; unless, someone not knowing what they are doing rewired the circuit.
