I have a tg1860 and the mower deck will not engage. If I pull the button to engage the deck , nothing happens , but I still have to push the reverse awareness button to go backwards. The switch seems fine nothing loose or visibly worn.

I have the same problem.
It mowed fine for about an hour when I first tried it. I stopped it for a few minutes while I got a cup of coffee and when I when to mow again, no PTO.
Did you find a solution?

The three fuses up top are good.
I can get the clutch to make a little noise if I put 12V on it directly with test probes. The test probes probably aren't feeding enough amp to make the clutch contact fully.
I need help finding all the other fuses listed on Messicks parts list for the TG1860. Supposedly there's a 3amp fuse somewhere.
