    GT245 Mower Deck Clutch

    This sentence does not make sense. Do you mean that you checked the PTO switch? You should not be measuring voltage with the meter in the ohms position. Do you have the owners manual? There should be some trouble shooting guides in it. Richard

    Problem with Transaxle on Ariens Riding Lawnmower -17.5HP B&S - 42" deck - 6 speed manual transaxle

    There should be a bracket that comes down on both sides of the engine pully. This bracket keeps the belt from grabbing the pully when you have the clutch pedal depressed. It is item 66 in this parts photo. If this is not in place, you will experience the problems you are having.

    Taking off and putting on a PTO Clutch on a Craftsman GT3000 garden tractor

    Good suggestion. Also the OP should check from the clutch connector to ground. It should read completely open. A short of the coil to the metal part of the clutch will cause the fuse to blow. Unfortunately, there is no fix for that problem other than replacing the clutch. Richard
