Well I spoke to Terry today for a few minutes, after I installed a new battery (no change to problem). I tested a connection back towards the switch and was getting about 2v. I had to hang up with him and pulled the panel to look in at the switches. Prior owner had ordered a new ignition switch and had not installed it, so I figured good time to do that. I reached back in (forgot I had key on still) moved the wire to ignition and there was a spark...damn! Then engine wouldn't turn at all (new fuse fixed that).
So killed power from battery and took out the plug and saw the wire running from harness to the PTO switch was hanging by a thread or two.... literally. I got all that pulled out, put new ignition key in and reattached wire to harness how it's supposed to be. Then the wires running to lights were loose and tightened them up with a new connector. Got all back together and..... engine just cranks and won't run.
So do some diagnostics on ignition key, it has same plug configuration, but figured out it's got different diagram than original one but looks practically the same. So I popped in old one after I dug it out of the trash and plugged it in and I have engine power, running lights again and PTO seems like it works again (finally heard the click when I had key on engine off and flipped on PTO switch).
I think I'm back in business but going to have to figure out a new situation for the old ignition key. Thanks for all the help and input everyone!
