My 2008 Snapper RER (7800368) with a B&S 17.5HP engine dies when I release the brake. I have checked the seat switch and it seems to be working fine. I would appreciate any information about what I can check next.

Check the break switch.

Thanks BlazNT, I checked the brake switch, seat switch and the blade switch and they checked O.K. I guess I'll start checking for an exposed wire.

Yes that would be next in my mind. I normally do the free stuff first. Its amazing how many times it's the free stuff that is broken.
I guess I should also ask how did you test to see if the switches were good? Continuity tester I hope.
