I loaded up my 753 last night got to the job this morning, I went to start it I got nothing at the key. Good voltage on the battery and terminals are tight. I jumped the starter it was getting voltage and cranking. I got nothing on the fuel shutoff solenoid. Also when I turn the key I don’t hear the starter solenoid clicking. The seat bar is bypassed on the harness so I know it won’t be that. Any help is appreciated thanks.
 
check your fuses?

and maybe try doing a load test on the battery,a s just cause it reads good on a volt meter, doesn't mean battery is good! did you try starting with jumper cables from another GOOD battery supply source?
also check all grounds for corrosion or just solid connections same with hecking connections on fuses, and starter relay solenoid
 
You may have blown the 100 amp main fuse. That fuse delivers power to the cab. If you have a G series machine, there are two red cables on the positive battery post. One goes to the starter and the other goes straight up about 8-10" into a little black box. Open the box and inside in a flat 100 amp fuse. If the fuse is blown you can find any generic fuse at an auto parts store. Jumping the starter like you did would still be possible with the fuse blown.
 
If it's cranking but the fuel solenoid isn't engaging try moving it manually and use something to hold it in the run position. If it starts you need to trace back to the starting system. It could be the control module, loose wire, blown fuse, etc. Good luck!
