ok so i have a byers zero turn mower with a kholer command 18 on it. Today i went to cut the grass and got on it turned the key and nothing i thought huh thats funny but the battrey charger on it and it had 88 percent. huh so i thought i do not have time for this i will look in to this later turned the key to the on position and jumped the solenoid she fired right up now i pull out onto the yard and to my surprise go to turn on the blades and nothing..... i think this may be related any suggestions?

Start checking safety switches.

if the sticks are not in neutral, it won`t let the blades come up..blown fuse on the magnetic clutch

Could also be the PTO switch itself.

If it is a newer byers then your problem is a safety switch, most likely the seat safety switch, check that first. And yes the problems are related, you bypassed the safety system to start the machine, but it also provides power to the PTO, thus you can't turn the blades on.

Unplug the seat saftey switch and jumper it across and see if it all works.
