Could be the pto/drive shaft not connected or engaging, or the belt could be off. Pivot the wheels sideways, drop and remove the deck and remove the cover panels to replace the belt. Belt is on, but, PTO drive does not engage (does not turn-on).
I think the switch doesn't work because it's broken. The same thing happened on my tractor, and there seem to be a lot of after-market switches available. So....

There is a switch on all JOHN DEERe riders under the seat. If you are not sitting or if the switch is bad it will not start.
how do you engauge the mower?
If it will start then the switch that indicates that the brake is disengaged is still on. Possibly adjust or replace switch.
There's a yellow switch in the upper right hand portion of the dash. It's the PTO drive. Engage your clutch, pull up on the switch and move it forward, and that should start the blades spinning. If it fails to engage, it could be a bad switch or a bad battery.
There is no light switch. The lights come on when the tractor starts up.
The STX-38 should have an electric clutch for the mower deck. The switch to engage it is on the right rear fender. It is a toggle switch. You will have to pull up on the switch and forward to engage the blades.
I have a model 950 tractor that also uses the same heat sensor switch - ch15516. As far as I know, you cannot use anything but this john deere part. It is about $35 a your nearest Deere dealer.
There is a button on the right side of the tractor along with the cluster of other buttons. Just push in switch and light should come on switch that is 4wd. 4wd on this tractor is electric engaged.
To engage the power take-off (PTO) on a 2010 John Deere tractor, typically you would push in the PTO switch or lever located on the dashboard or control panel. Make sure the PTO is properly connected to the implement before engaging it to prevent any damage. Always refer to the operator's manual for specific instructions related to your tractor model.
Your statement is false, John Deere is the best tractor.
The Waterloo Boy Tractor was the first tractor by John Deere. They were produced by the thousands by Deere & Co. between 1918 and 1924.
Ever wonder what the main color of a John Deere tractor is? The main color of a John Deere tractor is green with yellowish wheels but there are many custom painted John Deere tractor's varying in color.
John Deere 455 is a model of lawn tractor used for cutting grass. It can be purchased at your local tractor store or you can buy a used one online at places such as Craigslist that people use to sell their used stuff.
The manual pto is the switch used to engage the mower deck.
