Remove the shroud and the kill wire from the coil. Recheck for spark. No spark, bad coil. Spark kill wire is shorting out somewhere.

Not straitforward plug & play but I have done quite a few
Easy ( expensive ) way is to buy the key switch & wiring harness for the same model that does not have the STUPID SWITCH .
They gave so much trouble they were dropped and the mowers went back to normal electrics
The harder way ( but cheaper ) is to buy a standard switch, some wire & terminals
Depending upon exactly which model you have some have the standard key switch plug and a pig tail to connect it to the Stupid Switch sp check the number of terminals and their positions before buying a new switch .

Switch is 532 19 33-50
Wire the tractor according to the schematic for YTH22V42, 96043021700, 2015-08, TRACTOR
which you can download from the Husqvarna web site
The wiring diagram is the first page in the parts book
down side is the plug is very hard to come by so I use plain terminals .
Spray the back of the switch with silicone spray
slde toilet roll / kitchen towl roll etc center down the wires
connect all of the wires, triple checking they are correct
Slide the toilet roll over the switch & fill with some potting mix , Body filler , JB weld etc to make your own plug
Beforeyou connect the battery again, check that the kill wire to the coils never connects to power or you will fry the wiring
Alternative is to buy the entire wiring harness for the Husqvarna
