Did you check for loose or frayed wires? You could probably find a video on YouTube about how to use a test light. That would be the best way to find your problem.

On my 1620, ( same lt basically ) I have to pull the motion lever "in" toward the seat. The lawn tractor starts then. I did bypass that seat safety switch.

Sometimes I have to do that on my 1320 too.

Did the tractor stall or did you just turn it off and it won't start anymore?

I would try moving your drive lever. Sometimes they don't go into neutral, move it to reverse and back and see if that works. I would also check the wires aren't loose or frayed.
Good Luck!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
