Had to replace the ignition switch due to a burn out. I thought I had all the wires correctly put back on but I lost the electric to the tractor when in the middle position on the switch. When I turn all the way to the right the started engages and turns the motor over. When I leave off the starter position I have no power to the rest of the tractor. I had installed an electric full pump years ago and ever since I installed the new ignition switch it stopped pumping. Checked it and still works when hot wired. At wits end trying to figure out the ignition switch. All help welcome.
 
You probably need to ask this question on the Weekend Freedom Machines website. It sounds like you have additional electrical problems besides just the switch.
 
I did what you suggested and went to the site and Chuck fixed me up with everything I needed. It turned out I had two wires crossed at the 25 amp fuse and the solenoid. Took a wiring diagram to figure this one out. Thanks for all your help and sending me in the right direction.
