Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Craftsman Will not start at key??, craftsman, fuse

Question
Hi, I have an older craftsman 18.5 hp rider that just will not start! When you turn the key, nothing happens! I can jump it at the silonoid & it will start! I have replaced the ignition switch & silonoid, The fuse is good! I have bypassed the seat,Blade & clutch sensor & still nothing!

Thanks Curt

Answer
 Hello Curt:

 Check the voltage from the Soleniod Post of the Ignition Switch and the Soleniod. This wire May be Burnt or Broken. From your Description you have Checked Everything else. Does this Mower have the Relay Under the Seat for the Ignition? Hope this Helps. I am here if you Require more  Assistance. Let me know what Happens, Please. I enjoy knowing the Outcome. Thanks.

 Good Luck

 Respectfully
