Default XT2 LX46 Fab Deck PTO will not Engage

So, I had an intermittent issue a couple years ago when my 2017 XT2 LX46 FAB wouldn't engage the blades. I took it all apart, and it worked fine.

Mowed 2 weeks ago, no problem.
Went to start this week, and mower fired up fine. Blades would not engage.

Then I started blowing the 20amp fuse under the seat when the PTO switch was activated (no PTO operating).

I replaced the PTO switch (although tested fine)- Nothing.
I have no power to my red wire on my switch.
Tested resistance of PTO clutch at 3.2. - Good

Replaced both reverse and brake switches (although tested fine) Nothing.

What am I missing? I cannot find a 2017 wiring diagram, only a 2015. The 2015 notes a PTO relay..... But I cannot find it....

Does anyone know where I can find a 2017 wiring schematic?
Does anyone know where the PTO relay is? If there is one?

Hopefully this will help someone down the road.

I checked ALL of the safety switches. (Seat, Reverse, and Brake). All tested fine, replaced anyway. Tested the PTO switch- tested fine, replaced anyway. Tested the single relay strapped to the side of the engine- tested fine, replaced anyway. Tested PTO, tested fine/actuated fine.

Called cub cadet and after getting someone competent, they send me 3 pages of wiring diagrams. 2 were accurate for my XT2 LX46 fab deck with the Kohler engine and push button start. The other one had some additional wires.

I found the Push Button Ignition Module was not getting Power out to the PTO. Everything else functioned. Ordered a push button start ignition module and Wala. Fixed.

Sorry you replaced so many unneeded parts to find the problem.
Just goes to show it is so necessary to diagnose/trouble shoot a problem, not shotgun parts at it.
Good thing is you have spare good used parts, and you posted back to help others.
Thank you.

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.
