blades and clutch will not enguage

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have an airens ezr 1540 zero turn with 15 hsp koler engine. Today a wire jumped off of the clutch where it attaches at one of the clutch 's terminals. This has happened a few times in the past and I have attached it and continues running with no problems. Today nothing. I replaced the 2 terminals and wire going into clutch and it still will not enguage when I pull up on the blade enguage knob. In the past you could even hear a clicking sound if you pulled up on the knob when mower was not running..but nothing today. Does anyone know of anything that I might try to see if clutch is still good or something that I could look for or investigate further?
Thanks for any insight.

Check to see if you're getting power at the terminals when it's engaged...might be something further up the line.
