Great point you guys, thank you. I'm leaning toward the ignition switch. I replaced the ignition switch with a stens 430-583 switch. When I ordered it online it said it would fit cub cadet 725-3026, which is the part number I got off partstree.com. The old switch was worn out to the point that the key wouldn't stay in, unfortunately I threw it in the trash last week. Would've been nice to see what the back of the switch looked like.
The old switch had 4 positions, off, run, run with lights on, and start. The new stens switch only had 3 positions off, run, and start. It couldn't even get power to the starter or the PTO. I thew in an old switch I had laying around from a wide frame (same 3 positions as the stens). It got power to the starter, PTO, and spark plugs with the wire disconnected from the "kill terminal" on the ignition module with the old wideframe switch.
Does anyone have the correct part number for a 4 position switch for an 1811?
Thanks!!
Gabe
