Default 1440 Doesn't Turn Over When Switch Is Turned...

Hey Guys,

My 1440 has decided not to fire! I checked the battery with a meter and it's showing approx. 13 volts, so I don't think that's the problem, but I'm no electrical wizard so I thought I'd ask here before replacing it...

When the switch is turned there is nothing; no starter engagement and obviously no engine turnover. The lights do come on and the PTO makes the usual audible "click" when engaged, but nothing else. I'm sure it's not a big deal; probably the ignition switch, seat switch (tractor runs without someone being on the seat so I assume the PO rigged that), PTO switch, etc...) but I'd appreciate some sage council from the gurus here!

Any detail you guys can give on what and how I need to check the electrical works would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance for the help!
