Sure, it COULD BE that switch buttttttttttttttt I would FIRST check all the battery and starter and ground cables, remove, clean and wire brush, and re attach each and every one of them ESPECIALLY at the battery.

ALSO you sure the battery is good and fully charged????

ALSO is the linkage okay allowing the start switch to get fully hard depressed???

Those saddle mount mechanical push to start switches arent rocket science to remove and clean and wire brush maybe light file the contacts on them and the copper button/post thats on the starter if all else fails that is. Ive seen them badly burned and pitted and carboned up.

Put a voltmeter on the starter and see what voltage does when switch is depressed??? if it drops drastically (lights would dim bad if on) but she dont crank insure the starter isnt mechanically jammed stuck into the flywheel??? which a looesning and retightening and/or rocking the tractor in high gear etc might cure

bad cables,,,,,,bad connections,,,, bad battery,,,,,,bad switch,,,,,,,bad starter button/post,,,,,,,bad starter A VOLT TEST WHEN CRANKING CAN HELP DIAGNOSE

YES SWITCH IS REPLACEABLE AND SO ALSO IS THE STARTERS COPPER BUTTON/POST IF ITS BURNED UP
