Komatsu wont start

Hi. I have a Komatsu FG30HT-16. It wont start. All fuses and relays good. If I jump power to the starter it fires right up. Tried a new key switch and does the same thing. All dash lights on and can hear it click once and nothing. Battery fully charged. Thanks!

Thanks. Yes it seems the forward reverse is okay. Goes in and out of neutral fine. Light works etc.

Hey, look at your forward reverse switch. if you have a problem with it could stuck in gear and it wouldn't start as well.
