Default 1650 neutral start switch

Just picked up a 1650 that is complete but neglected. The start switch does not energize the starter when turned. It will start by jumping the solenoid switch under the hood/dash. I have installed a temp start button but I would like to get back to original system. It doesn't look like anything was bypassed so I figure it is a switch malfunction. I can't find it on the brake linkage so it must be on the forward neutral reverse lever and I am having trouble locating it. There is a 2 terminal switch on the brake cross shaft under the chassis but it is not connected to anything and I see no wires hanging around. Where is it located and what is the most common cause of this problem? Neutral/start switch or key switch?

First make sure the PTO "toggle" switch is not engaged in the up position. There is only the one safety switch on the rock shaft/brake shaft area that you say is unplugged. I would remove the tunnel cover and the fuel tank so you can search/inspect further. 9 times out of 10 someone has put a jumper wire on the safety switch plug in...then check out the ignition switch contacts/plug in for corrosion for heat/amp melt down.

Default 1650 safety switch

The switch that I found on the frame cross member, just above the brake cross shaft, is connected to nothing and must be what I am looking for. The spring lever, shown on the parts diagram, on the brake shaft that actuates the switch is missing. Now I just have to find the wires that were connected to the switch. Thanks for the help, the colored wiring diagram is great.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
