Bolens Riding Mower Won't Start?

I have a 2005 Bolens 38" twin blade riding mower. It was running and I went to engage the blades and the pulleys were seized. The mower stalled as expected. I took the deck out and changed the blade spindles, blades, etc. I have a full charge on my battery and checked both the PTO switch and the park brake switch, seat switch, and solenoid, all have continuity, but I have no power at all. The fuse 20amp fuse to the ignition is good as well as the power going to the starter. Any ideas?
