Cub Cadet 7205 Glow Plug Problem
Glow Plug Controller 1.jpg
I've been having trouble starting my 7205 with 3 cyl diesel, I changed my glow plugs but still having trouble. It has the 3 position ignition switch, 1st click is to activate glow plugs , 2nd position start. I turn the key to 1st position and the glow plug dash light comes on but for only a couple seconds and goes out. I looked and there are two parts to the system , the controller and the relay. Any thoughts which one is the culprit ? Neither part is inexpensive but the cold weather is coming and I need the tractor to start. Thanks. |

If it is a cycle time issue, it is likely the controller.
Put a test light or meter on the glow plugs and cycle them. If they are getting power, the relay is fine. The timer should have some sort of temp sensor it is connected to. Either in the intake, internal or in the coolant. It is also possible that the temp sensor is not working. I do not know how that system is set up. Best bet if you don't know: Consult the dealer or service manual. |

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.
