I do not know how that happened but I had some experience with tractors doing their own thing.
A few years ago a man bought A big White farm tractor from to use in haying among other things. A month or so later he called me in the morning to see if I would bring one of my big tractors to his place and pull the White out of the creek near his house. It seemed that he believed that some kids had been playing with the tractor and had driven it in the water on purpose.
I was able to pull the tractor out and all seemed well except that the batteries were dead which we thought was caused by the switch being left on. Fast forward about two weeks when he calls me with some news about the tractor. It seemed that they were using the tractor to run a big round baler and had shut the tractor down for a few minutes, as they worked on the baler, when suddenly the tractor started on it's own. It turned out that some of the wires in the starting circuit had shorted and caused the tractor to randomly start when no one was around and thus explains how the tractor got into the creek. It does happen. Happy farming.
