The answer is as stated above. The seat switch. I was having the same problem. Checked the switch for proper connection and TA DA, works fine.
Thanks FIX4FREE.com I fixed my sears lawn tractor for free!

can you move the blades, if not then they are frozen just like mine, I was told it was the switch under the seat too.

there is also a safety switch for the blade engagement

Almost certainly you have a faulty seat switch. The functon of this is to cut the engine if you get off the seat with either/or the brake off or cutters engaged. Can be bypassed, but should really be replaced for safety.
