Seat switch and the PTO switch have to work including the wiring. Check those, check all grounds since you swapped motors, and check the TDCM plugs for dirt/corrosion.
316 electromagnetic clutch
Needing help on my 316, front pto clutch isn’t engaging. It was working before I swapped the motor out, took it apart and cleaned all the oil out of it and reassembled. Now with the clutch plugged in I get no light and the motor dies but when I unplug the clutch the pto light comes on. The field coil passes all of the tests in the service manual.
