First, let me say I have read all the archived items on neutral start switches and my problem is different from those folks whose tractors won't start. After trouble shooting a bad solenoid and having the alternator rebuilt, my tractor has been starting fine (before the alt wasn't putting out enough to charge the batteries and even with a full charge on new batteries, the solenoid just clicked) Here's the thing: I just noticed that the tractor will start in gear. I assumed bad neutral start switch and bought a new one but that did not cure the problem. This may have been going on a long time since I always (really try) never to turn the key without being in neutral,and don't resort the the shorting the solenoid on the ground trick so when I noticed it it may have had nothing to do with the problem I was fixing. Any idea how the starter is getting power with a functioning NSS in place when key is turned in gear? What to do about it, other than remembering always to put it in neutral except the time I forget?

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
