2084 Questions
Recently I over greased the front axle and got some grease flying everywhere. I also today changed the breather filter and gasket. It was running well when I shut it off to change the breather and gasket. To accomplish this only one electrical connection was dealt with. I removed the wire from the oil sensor and today replaced it as part of the reassemble. Once we got it back together it seemed as dead as a door nail. Checked the fuse and it was blown. Replaced the fuse and it too blew. The original fuse was a 20 amp fuse. We did put a 25 amp fuse in and it started and ran only a few seconds and again the fuse blew. I know next to nothing about the electrical system so any help and or hint where to start looking would be most helpful. Would grease cause a short as the flywheel area had a bit in there and the modules are located there too.

It sounds like you pinched the wire somwhere during the reassembly. Do you have a volt/ohm meter? There are a couple things to check with it if you do, if not, just trace the wire until you find where it got pinched, or check ends for fraying strands (all it takes is 1) that may be touching the frame or something. Or something might be hanging down and touching the connectors...just about anything is possible with electrical

My son and I checked out the wiring and found nothing amiss. Could a bad switch cause the fuse blowing problem.

A bad switch is not likely to cause shorting like that as most times there is not a ground wire at the switch, the individual circuits have a their own gorund and the switch just breaks (or connects) the hot leg. But it could be vaugely related to the switch, as another circuit could be shorted to ground or shorted to the circuit that is blowing. At this point you need a schematic (wiring diagram) and a volt/ohm meter. If you don't have one, the cheapest place to buy them is Harbor Freight. This one will work for THIS issue just as good as my $500 Fluke meters, so no reason to go all out and get a nice one.
http://www.harborfreight.com/7-funct...ter-98025.html Try to get a digital version of the wiring diagram then PM me for my email and send it to me and I can try to give you pointers to look for. As it is now you need to get that meter asap and I can tell you a couple things to check prior to getting wiring diagram...but I gotta run off to work now...I'll check back in when I get home

One correction to my initial post it was not the axle that I over lubed, it was the front of the drive shaft. We also have a 2086 and can switch ignitions to check things out. What dumbfounds me is the condition of the wires is very good no cracks or rub marks anywhere. I do have a multimeter and guess I have to break it out. Thanks for your help.

I doubt that the grease job had anything to do with your problem. You can down load the wiring diagram from the Cub parts site, just put in your model # and it shows the diagram in the parts list. Just wondering if maybe you pinched a wire to the fuel shut down solenoid when you did the breather. http://www.cubcadet.com/webapp/wcs/s...00505_-1_image If you need more help PM me with your phone # and I'll try to help.

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.
