Troybilt (MTD) electric blade clutch will not engage?

First things first.How did you check the switch? Try to check it with a owms meter to make sure that the switch is working propely. try the switsh both ways in the on and off setting. If you find that the switch is working propely than Check to see if there is voltage through one of the wires that the clutch plugs into. Take a 12 volt tester and hook the gater clip to ground and start the mower. Engage the switch like you were trying to start the mowing deck and check to see if you get power from the switch. It is a simple switch used. Only two wires to it. One will become hot and the other is a grown wire. Good luck !
