      This is assuming that no one has removed the electric PTO clutch.

      Check that PTO clutch connector is fully plugged in.

      If it is then unplug it and test for 12V across the connector with the PTO and ignition switch on. The engine needs not to be running to do this test. If present then the PTO clutch is bad. If not present then test the PTO switch two red wires while the switch still connect to the wiring harness and it is in the on position. There should be 12v on both red wires. If present on one and not the other then the switch is bad; otherwise there is problem with the wiring harness. The ignition switch itself is ruled out due to the fact the engine runs.

      These problems should covered by your warranty if you purchased the mower new from a dealer.
