Sprayed the terminals and the top part of the switch - worked like a charm.

But the standard lawn mower key I bought doesn't fit. Bummer

Does anyone have a diagram of which leads are supposed to switch on the back of the starter switch?

I get a lot of 'clicks'. Eventually it turns over. The solenoid is good, the starter is good.

Took the switch out and cleaned the terminals and no help. There are 4 terminals. When the switch is off, three of them are connected to each other. When I turn the key, the 4th connects to one of the three, but then another loses connectivity (now this could be exactly the way its supposed to work).

Am off to mess with PTO switch next... but wondering if there is a diagram someone has done for trouble shooting the switch itself.

Ok, here was my issue:

One of the spades that goes to the top fuse (maybe from the switch?) was loose.

Took it off, crimped it down a bit so it would make better connection, and problem solved !

Interesting because it would just click click click, and then every now and then turn over. So an intermittent failure. (To start it I would just sit and click it 20 or 30 times until one of them worked, annoying)

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.
