My Rider was out in the rain. Now it starts, but when I let the clutch (brake) out, it wont move. It there a brake that locks up or linkage issue. Ran great before this and yes the belt is on.
 
If it was in my shop, I would check the seat switch first. I am thinking it is the 4 pin switch. I would swap in a known to be good switch as those are difficult to bypass.

If that was not the problem, I would check the brake pedal switch. You should see it coming through the frame under the battery.
 
dzc3, you say when you let off the clutch/brake it won't move. Does the engine die, or does it keep running? If the engine keeps running, there is not likely an interlock problem. If yours is like mine, it has a parking brake lock on the dash, but it must be released in order for the pedal to move. I was just checking my parts list and there is, however, a link that attaches at the same point that activates the belt idler pulley. This link may have come loose. If you still have your instruction manual and parts list that came with it, you can check it out. If not, go to SearsPartsDirect and enter the model number and you will be able to view an exploded view of the parts. Could have someone sit on the unit and operate the brake pedal while you look underneath and see if everything is connected and working. (With the engine OFF!!!)
 
I got it working, I cleaned the terminals under the seat and the one by the battery it works great Thanks
