Default 1994 1641 no start no power to anything

Hello,
Forum lurker here I am the second owner of this 1641 and I have had it 20+ years. It is an awesome GT, just awesome. The OP bought it at David A Banks in Georgetown DE and it came with all of the original manuals with their stickers on them. They have been great to deal with. My local AD has zero interest in even trying to order parts.
I use the tractor at two properties about 20 miles apart, one is 1/2 acre and after mowing it I loaded the tractor onto the flatbed and drove it home. When I arrived home it would not start or even crank, nothing at all and I had just finished mowing 30 mins prior, during which the PTO switch was acting funny a couple of times. But now no power to anything at all, but the solenoid would jump. The main fuse was fine.
After reading around on this forum I decided to just replace the brake safety lockout switch, the PTO switch and also the ignition switch. I called David A Banks and everything was in stock! For a 1994 cyclops! It turned out to be the ignition switch and my old CC key fits the new switch as well as the 2 plain keys that came with it. I replaced all three and saved the old ones.
They are very easy to deal with on the phone, reasonable shipping charge of $15 and I had everything 2 days later, genuine oem parts:-) They have always been so easy to deal with and I just wanted to give them a shout out. If anyone else has a local AD like mine try calling them instead.
Thanks,
Vince
PS I will take a better pic with the side covers on next time.

Thanks for sharing. It's always helpful to hear about challenges that others have. I would have suggested looking at the pto switch since you stated that you were having issues with it. If that switch isn't off the tractor will act just as you described.
A few of us have a cyclops tractor or two. I'm glad you solved the problem.

Thank you.
Here are a couple of pics from today. It is such a great little tractor I move pallets of freight around with it as well as trailers. I fabricated this receiver hitch shortly after buying the tractor 20+ years ago. I use different drops or lifts for different trailers, it has worked very well, just took forever to get used to backing trailer up with it.
The new ignition switch let me use my old Cub key with the rubber handle.

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.
