I am struggling with figuring out what is wrong with my gravely.

I have trouble shot it and thought it was a bad solenoid so I replaced that and nothing. Replaced key switch and nothing. Will start by jumping across the solenoid but that's it. Is there something obvious that I am missing?

A relay or safety switch problem if all wiring is good.
