Check the kill switch?

Kill switch will still let your motor turn over but won't start. I would say master power or popped fuse. Connections on battery need to be checked, pulled off, cleaned and re-attached. Make sure battery is good as well.

Try jumping the starter with a screw driver and see if it will crank.

Good to hear olefisherman. I love it when things are simple and you get good customer service. Now, if my snowblower would start......
