Need help 655 will not turn over battery is good but nothing goes on

Just so you didn't miss the obvious.
How do you know the battery is good?
Are the battery terminals clean?
Did you try to jump start the engine?
Is there any sound like a click from the starter solenoid?
Is there some sort of lockout that keeps the engine from turning over
i.e. transmission have to be in neutral or park , clutch have be
depressed before engine will crank?
What about the mower if it has one? Does it have to be raised while
starting or is there some sort of lever to keep it from running?
Is there a separate lever that engages the PTO?

brake must be on, in neutral, blade dissengaged, and driver on the
seat. From memory on my old JD lawn tractor.

Any one bad switch or connection can cause the problem. Try "jumping"
the solenoid to rule it out.
