Default 982 Front PTO switch is killing the engine - help?
I have an IH build 982 and need some help. There is no mower deck on it right now. I started the tractor and decided to turn the front PTO on to make sure it was working. When I flipped the switch the engine dies. I assumed the clutch went bad so I disconnected the wire to the clutch. Again I flip the switch and the engine dies. Maybe the switch is bad I thought. I have a spare PTO switch so I changed it out, same thing. Now where is my problem? Not sure where to go from here. Any help appreciated.

A fault in the safety switches. Perhaps the seat switch is bad, or no longer wired up. Could even be a faulty PTO switch. Get a wiring diagram and start tracing!

My guess is also the seat switch my old 782s was doing just that and the seat switch plug had vibratedoff

From the ID Tag on your tractor, what is the exact Model and Serial numbers so I can look at the correct Wiring Diagram.

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.
