Disconnecting the seat sensor

I have a 2014 Craftsman 42 inch riding mower. I would like to disconnect the seat sensor so I can lean to one side and the engine won't turn off. I unplugged the connector under the seat. That took care of the seat, but when I released the clutch/brake the engine cut out. How do I only disconnect the seat sensor and not the clutch/brake? Any help would be appreciated.
