Title says it all, my John Deere 135 auto will only start with blades engaged. If they are disengaged, it will crank, but not start. Any ideas?

Export threadSafety switch problem is the most likely cause, but we need more info. Could also be PTO switch, rodents got into wiring, key switch, etc. to you title may say it all, but to me it says “I can’t get my tractor to start, what do I do”. Remember we are a thousand miles away and need you to paint us a better picture of what is going on. Here‘s am example of the types of questions whose answers will help us help you.
You are going to have to give us more info before we can tell you how to proceed. First, give us the full engine numbers, model, type and code. That way we will see your exact engine. Second, you say engine won’t start. Does that mean, won’t turn over or turns over, spins, but doesn’t start? Third, have you checked for spark? Fourth, are you sure the cylinder is getting fuel? Fifth, is the carb getting fuel? Sixth, how fresh is the fuel? Seventh, did this problem occur suddenly, or has gotten worse over time? Eighth, what have you done so far to solve the problem on your own? I know that I’m asking a lot, but you must remember that we are not standing next to you with a drink in hand, looking at the unit. You must paint us a better picture of what is happening, or we will just be throwing guesses in your direction, trying to see what will stick. DIY guys do that, the techs want good information before throwing money at the problem.
