J D 445 Pto Problems

[LakeRat1]

I am having a problem with the PTO on my JD 445 law & garden tractor, the Mower has not been used since last year, Got it out and running, when I pulled up on the PTO switch, The Knob just pulled out of the switch, >< So I went to the JD place got a new switch >< when I pull up on the PTO switch, nothing happen, the PTO light dose not come on >< I think it might be a blown fuse, I didn't have a good light to look for it, can any of U tell me where I need to look, is it on the fuse panel? the operator Manuel don't say where it is, are there any other things I should be looking ? Thanks for any advice U can send this way on my JD 445 PTO problems

Check wire harness connection at PTO clutch.

Thanks Mark >< I will check that Out >< and I will be sure to get back to All of U, as to what I find, I use the JD 445 Tractor and Mower hooked up to a Cyclone Rake to Vac. up all My Pecan Leaves, we have 18 pecan trees, the leaves wont start fall until late Sept & early Oct, so I still have time >< it always best to try and stay ahead of the Game,

Sure glad I got started early checking things out, I have got the Tractor & mower deck all checked out & serviced, as I was going to do the Final test drive, by making a couple rounds with the mower cutting grass before hooking it back up to the Cyclone Rake, I found this Problem,

Thanks Again

All is GOOD here at The Lake Now ><Thanks U all for the Help, This morning I check the reverse switch, looked OK, worked it by hand, Then back Tractor out of the shop, got it going at full Throttle, them moved forward a few feet, tried the PTO, and it connected just the way its suppose to, I plan to cut some grass with this Tractor this evening, If all checks out good, I will get it hooked back up to the Cyclone Rake,

Thanks A gain for All the Help

glad you got it fixed, by the way, the fuses are on the driver side, open the hood, take the right side panel off, and they will be there.
