Yes, it is only on the engine side. Here is something I had theorized. Let me know if I'm wrong.
There is a clutch safety switch in the motor that is what is killing thing engine. I thinking maybe it is being engaged because the left wheel has been turning on its own (needs adjustment I know), and maybe that is being sensed by the clutch safety switch?

Thanks for the reply!
PTO was definitely off, and I disconnected from the harness for good measure.
This particular seat switch did not have a shorting bar on the harness, I made sure.
I did find the problem last night, but not exactly sure what it was going to.
I used my meter and traced the short back to a wiring harness that goes to the engine. It was the white wire. It had about 380 Ohms to ground. The schematic is on page 49 of the manual which can be found here: /images/ddoc/HUSO/HUSO2012_NAen/HUSO2012_NAen_RZ5426_115458927%20Rev%20B.pdf
As you can see, the white wire goes to the "Engine Pigtail", and I am not sure what I have disconnected, but when I do, everything works normally. Blades engage, handles and brakes don't kill the engine. So whatever the white wire does, it's malfunctioning.
