That's interesting and sure makes it confusing for trouble shooting the electrical! The print I got is off this web site from the service manual for 1872 & 2072 as well as the 1811 and others. I'm not trying to be arguementive I'm just confused and trying to sort it out for future reference .

Like I said, I think it was a different Vendor than the original, and the labeling is different. They look & function the same. I know Indak was a Vendor for Cub Cadet but don't know of others.

Oh My.....

It certainly is frustrating uncovering Cub Cadet's discrepancies . Case in point this PTO Switch (725-0893) seen in numerous tractor models. After getting a headache and deciphering the different switch layouts, seems there are at least 3 different vendors for this switch and their labeling is all different. Below is a Internal Switch Diagram to illustrate.

BTW...the previous image of the Switch Terminal diagram is WRONG. The Run and Start positions are vice versa, which adds to the confusion.

This isn't the first Cub Cadet discrepancy nor will it be the last to uncover.

That's just perfect

Thank You for sorting this out for us! Sometimes electrical is hard enough without getting the wrong info from the manuals you've saved a lot of head- aches and made trouble shooting a lot easier.

When my 1872 had this problem I jumped the +12 to the small lead on the solenoid to make sure that was good. I turns out in my case, while the brake switch was good, the paddle that activates it had broken off thereby causing the same effect as if the brake switch was defective. A new paddle fixed it.

Well we checked everything for power and changed the ptoswitch, key switch, and starter solenoid, maybe we need to try to jump the brake switch again.

I just replaced my solenoid and had one of the small wires on the wrong big terminal. I switched it around and it fired right up. Good Luck.

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.
