Is the clutch/brake pedal switch connected? Is the little metal tab on this linkage in place?

Just as a note, he says he has no power on anything he has tested..... I find that hard to believe. Unless the battery is dead. Ought to be power somewhere.

Yes the clutch/brake switch is conected. The battery isn't dead the voltage is at 12.48 volts. Yes, believe it or not no power to anything. I left it for today and I'll get a fresh perspective next time I get a chance to work on it. Very frustrating.

I think he may have the wires on backwards on the starter solenoid.

Oh, more than likely.
That should have been painfully obvious with a test light, a meter and the wiring diagram....

Yep, what he said. Put that control wire on the common side of the solenoid and you’re in binness!

I don't understand all of you snide comments. I thought the purpose of this forum was to talk about cubs and learn a little about them. You know share a common interest...... Anyway thanks everyone for giving me some ideas on how to remedy my problem.

That sounds familiar.

Think of this forum like playing a round of golf where novice players are attacked by gators but never really injured. Some enjoy the sport and stay here, but others look for greener... uh, tractors.

Tim:

Sorry, for rude or snide comments.

(A) Download the Wiring Diagram for the Wiring Section (page 5) in the Technical Library.

(B) Once in hand, examine your new harness to make sure your tractor is wired as indicated in the diagram.

(C) If you are sure, the tractor is wired correctly, then it is time to dig out a meter, either an analog (VOM) or a Digital (DVM)

(D) With meter set to read DC Voltage, at least 20V, connect the meter Black lead to the Battery Negative Terminal.

(E) Starting at the Battery, with the meter's Red lead, start probing at the battery and make sure you have 12V. With diagram in hand, work in a forward sequence (per diagram), until you find an absence of 12V.

Let me know what you find.

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.
