I have a Murray mower, model 42515. The battery is dead and my wife hooked up the jumper cables in reverse polarity. The starter turned over for a second and when I switched cables I get nothing.

Make sure your battery can hold a charge.
Step 1
Put it on the battery charger.
Step 2
Follow the negative cable to the chassis on the mower.
Step 3
Remove the bolt holding the negative cable.
Step 4
Sand the area around the bolt hole until shiny metal is visible.
Step 5
Put a layer of oil on the metal and end of cable.
Step 6
Attach the cable back to the chassis using a new bolt.
Step 7
Make sure connection is tight.

Reversing the cables and starting the mower has damaged your starter now. You will need to fix the starter on your mower and also change your battery.
I found a fuse and it was blown replaced and all is working
