I somehow left the key on overnite and now will not start. Battery shows full charge. What did I burn up?

Check all your safety switches. I'm always forgetting about these. The seat has one, the brake has one and the blade driver belt handle has one. Make sure you have all of them set up for a normal start.

If you haven't charged your battery, do so or take it and have it load tested. With the key on, the anti-backfire solenoid below the carb should have drained the battery pretty low if it was working. If you were to set the park brake and cycle the key switch from off to on you should be able to hear / feel the solenoid activate and click. Or maybe the PTO is engaged is all.

Did it get sorted out?

It's been 5 days now and nothing from the OP.

I got it started. Don't know what happened. Thanks much for the advice!
