hello Forum, i have a Ryobi 54″ zero turn 48v. this is 4th summer using it, battery 2/3rd life, but chugging along.
the other day started to act up, while the blades engaged and while riding forward, it suddenly stops moving forward, the blades keeps on running fine, but no forward movement,
i then move backwards a bit, and that corrects the issue temporarily and it will allow me to move forward again, until the issue repeats itself, so i was hoping if you have an idea of what is happening and how i should go about fixing it. thanks
Weird, I would think it’s some safety issue with the seat but the fact that the blades are still running is weird. I take it you checked all the connections and wiring that lead into the seat.

i will check all connection and post my results, thanks
it was the break safety switch, it was corroded and wires are shorted, disconnected it for now and it works fine.
thanks for the help.
Great news, nice job and glad it’s working.
