Grasshopper 727K with mower deck 3461 - Mower won't engage.

[JDSmall]

The mower is not engaging. Previously, I would wiggle the Actuator Switch and it would re-engage. Now, that doesn't help.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Does it have the Powerfold option?

Yes, it does have the powerfold option.

There is some good info that may help on page 36 and 38.
There is also a button switch under the powerfold motor assy that has to be closed or the clutch will not engage.
Just something else to look at.
