My John Deere STX38 won't start. It doesn't make any noise at all when I turn the key. The battery is good. The cable to the positive end was very corroded, so I cut it off and put a crimp-on copper end onto the cable as temporary repair. I also disengaged the seat cutoff switch just in case it wasn't functioning properly. Neither worked. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Yes, it is well secured. Thanks for that though.
