He rules out the battery, jumps the starter to test, then traces the problem to a bent neutral safety switch linkage under the mower deck, showing exactly where the switch and pin are located. Useful mainly for owners facing a no-start/no-click condition on this model.
Posted by Part Time Outdoors, an owner sharing a hands-on fix from personal experience with his own tractor.
No clicking usually rules out the battery. In this case the cause was a bent neutral safety switch linkage that wasn't pushing in the switch pin.
It's located under the mower deck near the wheel, a small knob with an attachment and a pin that must be pushed in to allow starting.
Jump the starter directly after removing the top panel. If it fires up, the problem is likely a safety switch, not the battery or starter.
