13AT609H063 is model number but the model was only made in 2003.
You got either shifter problem or transaxle problem
On the F-N-R shifter there is a small spring / clip that can fall off so it won't select the proper drive
Get under and have a good look
The F-N-R shifter ultimately pushes & pulls a little plunger that moves a gear inside the diff
Check the plunger goes all the way in or out as you shift
The rod is connected to the plunger by a split pin that can also fall out .

I found a spring under the battery box about the size of the spring that is under your seat I'm not sure where that goes if that's the problem I'll have a good look and check the shifter and such

It's weird too that it will move actually in reverse but not in forward thanks for the help not much of a mower guy never worked on one
