John Deere 110 tractor won't start

14 years ago

My John Deere 110 tractor won't start. It ran great yesterday. Today when I turn the key and press the foot pedal nothing happens. I checked the battery and it is good. When I turned the key on and then turned the PTO switch on I heard a click. So there is battery power. But when I press the foot pedal and turn the key nothing happens. I have the transmission in neutral. I would appreciate any help and thank you in advance for your help.

JD schematics are pretty hard to come by, so I'll have to generalize.

Jumper 12V to the small terminal of the starter solenoid.
IF the engine cranks, battery, solenoid & starter motor are good.
The problem would lie between the ignition switch and small terminal.
Typically, 12V will flow (in the crank position) from the key switch S terminal, through the PTO switch, through the brake/clutch switch and to the small terminal.
There "MIGHT" be a fuse inline??
Check your connections/at each switch. Also switch adjustment.
