Yep, sometimes it is simple. Had a similar problem: good battery, but no fire to the starter. Finally, using a cheapo lighted probe tester, I found that I had juice to the cable clamp, but not at the backside where the cable comes into the clamp.

I figured out that the key switch is bad--jiggle it and the tractor will crank. I had been trying to crank it standing beside it. Sitting in the seat changes the hand angle on the key. Yeah, simple things.
