If you look at the schematic everything receives power with key on. All of the controls are through the ground path. The PTO switch completes a ground from the relay to engage the clutch.

Where about is that relay located? Can it be replaced?

This is really going to help now and in the future ... I really appreciate it.

I tried to remove the plug for the PTO to clean it, but that sucker is on there ... I just spray some contact cleaner on the terminals that were exposed. I don't have that upper body strength you boys do ... any other way to remove it besides brute force?

Arrow Yep ... I found it
Yes ... I see it now. I ordered a replacement found it on ebay for $8 to the door ... hopefully that will correct the PTO from disengaging at times. Thanks a lot guys.

Okay ... the PTO went out again. I was able to cut all the grass ... cut for 3 hours with no trouble. Stopped for 20 mins. break. Started it back up ... no PTO. I ordered a new relay last week, but it looks like it got lost in the mail. It was suppose to be here on the 20th, but I'm still waiting for it and there hasn't been an update in the tracking since the 20th. I'm in Ohio and the relay is coming from PA.

Anyway how do I test for voltage on the relay it is plug in to some kind of module and taped up. What do you mean by cycling it a few time ... pulling the PTO switch in and out?

Thanks for reading my post.

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.
