Over Charging 169
I was having a hard starting issue where the starter didn’t want to turn over. I did some checking and cleaned everything up. The connections were very dirty and corroded. After cleaning the connections the starter works great.
I then wanted to verify the system is charging ok. With the Key off I have 13.2 volts at the battery. I started the battery and it jumped to over 100 volts. I thought maybe my volt meter was bad so I did some other checking and then rechecked and sure enough the voltage was very high. Turned it off and the voltage went back down to 13.2. I did an ohms test from the F terminal on the generator to ground and it buzzed so there is connectivity there. I thought maybe there was a problem with either the voltage regulator, or maybe the wiring so I disconnected the F terminal from the voltage regulator and did the same test. Still buzzed, so I then disconnected the wire from the F terminal on the generator and did the same test. It buzzed again. I wanted to confirm, there should not be continuity from the F terminal on the generator to ground. From what I understand that is how you test the charging system is to ground the F terminal, so it sounds like I may have an internal short in my starter generator? Just want some thoughts before I tore it all down when it may not be needed. Any ideas are greatly appreciated. Thanks Dave

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.
