So I was attempting to use some leads from battery to the PTO to bypass pto switch I wanted to test PTO clutch and one of the leads grounded out with a fair amount of sparks not paying attention .Now mower will not start via the key but if I put 12 v directly to the solenoid mower will start just not with the key now. I ran out of daylight thought Id post the question to get a head start on tomorrow

main fuse is that the 3/4 " square fuse ? on the circuit board checked the 2 15 amp fuse. square block feels like it has to be forced maybe to come out assuming it does .Thanks for the reply
