There is one fuse located in the wiring between the battery and 

ignition start switch. This is a standard plug-in type automotive 

fuse rated at 20 amp. Always use the same capacity fuse for 

replacement. If the electrical system does not function, check for 

a blown fuse.
If you have a recurring problem with blown fuses, have the 

tractor’s electrical system checked by your Cub Cadet Service 

Dealer.

There are several safety switches in the electrical system (PTO 

Switch, PTO Clutch, Parking Brake/Drive Control Lever Switch, 

Seat Switch and No Cut in Reverse Switch). If a function of the 

safety interlock system described earlier is not functioning 

properly, have the electrical system checked by your Cub Cadet 

Service Dealer.
