Default 782d pto switch

Hello. I have a 782d that I am preparing to sell. I put the mower deck on today and the pto will not stay engaged. If I hold the switch up it stays engaged, once I let go it disengages. I am thinking switch but not sure. It doesn't look like an easy job getting the switch out so I thought I'd throw it out there. Any suggestions would be appreciated

Thanks,
Earl

Check for corrosion on the switch and relay terminals. Also, if the relay is bad, it will cause those symptoms.

Check all of your safety switches and make sure the are working properly I had this exact problem on my 782D I replaced the switch and the relay and still had the problem I got to checking safety switches and it ended up being the neutral safety switch that the foward/reverse lever operates the little metal tab broke off and was not working properly. I wish I would of checked that before I spent close to $100.00 for a switch and relay that I didnt need. Wally

If I understand you correctly,
You are saying that the switch will not stay in the up /on position, it returns to the off position unless you hold it up/on.
if so, it is the switch latch problem,replace the switch to correct the problem.

The culprit is most likely the RELAY. The PTO Switch is doing what it is suppose to do.

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.
