When I try to engage the blades, nothing happens. I've looked underneath at the belts and they all appear to be fine. It could be something electrical because it worked fine the last fall when I used the last time. Any suggestions about what could be wrong like maybe a fuse or something? Thanks

Welcome to MLMF, frozenropes!

I think I would check the small contact switch located at the base of your handle that engages the blades. It only takes one winter for dirt, critters or something to either erode the contacts...or chew through a wire.

Good luck.

Agree on the advice Mark gave. I have found that just wiggling the wires (with the engine shut off!!) can lead you to the correct connection, then you can clean it up and mow away.
