Hi booyajj, welcome to the forum.

First thing to check are the safety switches, if you haven't do so already. The seat switch is often the culprit....put a jumper on it and see if it will crank.

I have check all of them with a jumper and with a volt meter for them to open and closed. I can jump the start relay and the tractor starts fine

Hi Booyajj,
Welcome to the forum. Between the switch and the starter solenoid there is a fusible link in the wire. This may have blown. Follow the red (or white) wire from relay backwards under the dash.Should find the link(may be a bulge in the wire). Ths can be cut out and replaced with another link or an inline fuse. You can jump around it to test, but you should put another fuse in place for permanent fix. Good luck.

Well I finally figured it out it was the time delay control module wasn't getting power out of it
