2012 GTX 2100 Problems HELP requested
I bought a 2012 GTX 2100 a little over a year ago. Worked great until...suddenly power steering, headlight, and deck lift stopped working. Would start unless I used jump box to start. Replaced battery and starts and runs fine. PO gave 3 3 resisters that he told me he once had to replace when P/S stopped working. I ordered and replaced the 3 resisters. Deck now works- not P/S or headlights. Replaced all space fuses. No help. Looked and checked wiring as well as I can.
Anyone run in to this problem? Any ideas for solutions? Really appreciate and help. Dealer repair would take a home Equity loan... Thank in advance |

Check the rectifier for good ground and clean terminals.

I've been told by folks in the know that jumping those machines or the voltage getting too low will both ruin the EPS. That doesn't explain the headlights not working, but they really don't like having the EPS undervolted.

It's on the left side, down by the frame.
Will have a flat 3 pin connector plugged into it. Good place to check for proper DC voltage output as well. f you have low voltage, the PS will not work like it should. Had the same issue with my GTX2154LE this spring. What voltage is showing on your meter when the key is turned on? |

Here's where the rectifier is mounted.
Note the ground tab coming from the bottom of it. The fan shroud is plastic there for it needs a dedicated ground to the engine. |

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.
