Hello, I was my tractor I was had my yeah, butt off the seat, reaching behind to operate the hoe, then the tractor just died. I turned to go key to turn it over.Won't do anything feel pump comes on. I bypassed the seat safety switch and the neutral safety switch. It's still won't crank any other ideas.

Your playing with a can of gasoline in one hand and a road flare in the other.
Never ends well!

This is a computer controlled tractor, just randomly shorting or bypassing switches can lead to some drastic computer damage!
Start by putting everything back the way it should be.
Then check all of the fuses and look for codes on the dash.
Then if none of that looks off, move all the levers on and off checking for it cranking between attempts.
if it's an HST move the pedal back and forth while trying to crank it.
