When I attempt to start tractor the relay clicks but solenoid on tractor does not engage. What could be wrong.
Weak battery / Loose or corroded cable to battery or starter . If you can get to starter posts with jumper cable try to jump it if it trurns
over the starter is not the problem. Check all connections as a first step this sounds like a bad connection or weak battery.

The PTO usually has a clutch that has to be engaged so that you can select the PTO rotation setting. I had a problem like that on my tractor and all it needed was a little adjustment on the PTO clutch lever, so it could disengage the PTO gearbox properly.
SOURCE: I have a John deere 317 tractor that does not start.
We will be testing for voltage to the points, coil, engine to tractor wiring harness, ignition switch
Tools needed:
volt meter to read 12 volts, or test light
1) with the points open: is there voltage at the connection wire at the points
If yes; adjust points to .020" and try to crank engine and check for spark
*** you may want to determine if condensor is connected to this wire also
if no
2) check point side (neg or - ) of coil for voltage
if yes, engine should start
if no
3) check for voltage at the + side of coil
If yes, coil is bad
if no
4) check wire connector from engine to frame wiring harness
if yes; engine should start
if no
5) check wiring on the back of ignition switch
if yes; engine should start
if no
6) check that ignition switch RED or BATTERY supply wire has voltage
if yes; switch is bad
if no
7) check supply wire and circuit breaker connected to the battery side of the solenoid
if yes; engine should start
if no; circuit breaker could be at fault or wire connector at battery supply

The electro-magnetic coil side of your PTO is shorted out.On the 318 it is very easy to replace,just under front screen.
SOURCE: john deere 425 lawn tractor. it wont start but it
My John Deere did the same thing. Turned out to be the emergency brake sensor.
SOURCE: John Deere 316 the starter doesn't engage often.
You need to instal a starter relay kit.Deere part # AM107421.Mount it down by the starter,purple wire that goes to starter will now be plugged in to the relay,red wire to hot side of starter,black wire to a ground point,purple wire that is a part of new relay can now be plugged in to the starter.its very easy to install and fixes nearly 100% of clicking starter.
