If you remove the seat, CHANGE the harness for sure. It sometimes ohms out ok but is bad. I drill a hole behind the seat so the harness does not pinch as much. Those seat harnesses were bad right from the factory.

broken wires in the the seat switch harness under the seat can cause this and is a common issue. you really need to remove harness and ohm to get a good reading on it

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
