Briggs and Stratton 14 HP

I am not getting any fire to my motor. I changed coil and checked clutch and seat safety. they are not the problem. Any suggestion on how to check the blade safety switch or any other ideas on what might be the problem. Oh I tried jumping across the celinoid and it still didn't fire.
Thanks.

Is the engine not turning over when the key is turned? No spark?
simplest way is to bi pass all safetys by determining where they are normally open or closed switches and work accordingly next step is to turn on switch and check for power going to coil if have power check points for dirt or adjustment but while you are there check sheer key if sheer key is broke wont get spark at all or intermittent spark

Do you mean the sheer key on the flywheel?
It running the day before this started. I shut it off went to start it and it turned over great but no spark. If I jumped across the cellinoid wouldn't that bypass the safeties? Like I said I changed the coil because the spark plug wire was burned. I thought that was the issue But I guess not. I hard wired the seat safety and it would not turn over with the clutch safety un plugged. I guess that should rule them out. I think that the blade safety is a normally open switch so I can't jump it out.

Engine is turning over great with the key. Just no spark
