I've been fighting the same issue for a couple weeks now. Finally figured out that there was a short in the ignition switch. It would start the mower but the PTO wouldn't come on. Wiggled the key around and the PTO would click on and off. $14 switch at our local mower parts store.

mine doing same thing as of today. every belt system has a tensioner pulley , and evey one of those has a spring on it somehow. likely just a separate spring, which has probably broken and fell off of the pulley. it almost has to be that, like You the chutch is engaging but with the spring gone it cannot get tight to the belt, so the blades cannot turn.

Check all the springs, that was our problem, runs great now

Take the mower deck belt cover off an make sure the belt is not broken. Get the wiring diagram and start testing the circuit with a volt meter. It sounds like you aren't getting 12V to the PTO.

Clutch or switch even if new don’t mean it’s a good part…. Check with ohm meter continuity both switch and clutch …. Check wires maybe blew connection loose.. mine will engage clutch with engine off so I can hear click and know it’s working. Definitely new belt…. Nothing bound under mower in blades. String wire etc

Thanks Jake, my mechanical abilities when it comes to electrical is not good at all. I’ve never understood how to use ohm meters and testers. I’m going to next week remove the blades and check all that out, but the blades do spin freely. I forgot to and wish I would have included in the video that when the mower is off and key on the pto clutch does click. So I’m thinking it’s getting power. Thanks for the input, I’ll work on it next week when schools back in and maybe do a follow up video of every thing I have checked

if it has an electric pto, the drive belt should always be under tension.

check for bad routing of the drive belt or a spring left off from changing out the pto.
