Is there a substitute for MTD PTO switch on 782D

[mames]

I was blowing snow tody and I had the PTO switch quit working for a short time. Is there another switch that will work for this? It is on a 782D. I had simular problems on my 1650 and found that John Deere has a switch that would work because they also used the same engine in some of there tractors with the same PTO unit.

Unfortunately, that PTO Switch is unique, in that it has a "Start" position to it. The Switch is 725-0893 ---> <font color="ff0000">925-0891</font>

Here is a internal diagram of this switch...

Roland, Mark: and also, unfortunately, on the 782D, there is that 925-0894 PTO Relay, found on the left side of the pedestal, which complicates the matter even further.

Roland, you might give him an internal diagram of that also... I suggest that it show which pin of the PTO Switch goes to which pin of the Relay....then to the PTO itself...

Be sure to make sure it's a bad pto switch. I had the same problem and it was the relay myron mentioned.
