[QUOTE="Fishfiles, post: 6595, member: 782"] From what you said about the seat sensor it makes me believe you have the first generation of the interlock system which had a seat sensor and the controller box was on the right side of the seat , there is a kit to eliminate the seat sensor from Bobcat , it was offered free for a while as an upgrade /warranty if you had a problem with the interlock , but that was probally 15 years past , it's pretty expensive , I seem to remember over $200 , but you can trick it by using a steel worm drive hose clamp, what you do is raise the cab and push down on the seat then wrap the clamp around the sensor so it stays engaged all the time , another way to do it is to remove the sensor from under the seat , clamp it together , tape it up and strap it out the way -, I have never figured out how to by pass it with the wires as it is a three wire , 6 volt set up -------when it locks up what lights are not lite on the interlock ? , there may be dirt or rocks under the seat , you could first try and wash it out with a hose , and also check the connection on the bottom of the controll box as corrision has a tendency to get into that plug [/QUOTE]
