I have replaced my starter solenoid and ignition switch on my mower and it's not even trying to turn over. Could someone please help me to fix this problem?

I just bought a 2017 Turf Tiger II 61-in with the 35 HP Briggs Vanguard engine and a Freedom Z for my son. I mowed yesterday for the first time and the TT was a helluva ride. Very fast. I need to develop some touch because I can't just push the handles all the way forward most of the time like I did with my previous mower, a Cub Cadet Commercial Tank. I used that for 13 years and the muscle memory is pretty developed. But this Turf Tiger is a beast.

Ron,
I had the same thing happen with a Cub Cadet Commercial with a Kawasaki engine and also with a John Deere Gator. The problem was with the little wire that connects to the starter or starter solenoid. It is a very small wire that just pushes onto a little flat lead...not one that fastens with a nut. I jiggled it and problem solved. This happened multiple times and usually after I wasted money replacing a solenoid or battery.
But, other possibilities to check are the little switches that are pushed when your handles (on a zero turn) are in the out position. Also the seat switch. Battery of course and the battery cable connections.
Good luck.
