Mower faults are changing switches

[jeff-winn]

Describe The Bug:

Whenever the mower faults while mowing the main switch seems to turn off even though the mower would be mowing and is still on. It’s hard to tell it should be mowing like this.

To Reproduce:

Easiest way would be to have the mower out mowing and lift it. The switch will then turn off.

Expected behavior:

When the mower is mowing and faults, the switch should ignore that it’s not mowing and just stay in whatever state it was in previously.

• Mower was parked should remain it’s parked
• Mower was mowing should remain it’s mowing
• The only thing that should change is the sensor indicating it’s faulted

The big concern with this is if the mower is trying to mow and faults, when I check HomeKit it looks like the mower has been parked, and not that it's sitting on the property somewhere in a ditch waiting for help to arrive.
