Need help with my Simplicity. Front pto works fine after first starting. Cut grass for a while(20 Min.), shut it off with switch. Pull switch to start back and it will not start mower deck. Spindles good on mowing deck. After tractor sits over night , the pto works fine but does the same thing when it gets hot. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Bob

You have a hot short or hot open. That means when the electrical system heats up somewhere the circuit is either shorting to ground or opening. The most likely the clutch, but may be wiring. This will take someone with electrical troubleshooting experience and a test light or VOM to track down.
