Default GT 2100 -> Damaged fuse

Hello.

In the fuse box, someone can describe me or refer me to a WEB link to find out the reference of each fuse. I am making this request because a 30 fuse has been damaged, seems to have heated up. What can be the cause of damage ?

Dirty and/or corroded terminals or wiring in general.
Cruddy wires & such causes high resistance and related heat.
Plastic does not like heat.

Agree totally, corrosion is not your friend.
If you are asking, those fuses are auto parts store items.

Corrosion allows arcing, and that makes heat.
Just like a loose Bat- tree terminal.

I would think that added resistance causes more heat.

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.
