Hi. I'm a new cub cadet owner of an 1810. Sure, it needs some work and cleaning up, but I'm excited to get it in top running condition. I just replaced the battery, ignition, and solenoid. Still only starts when jump started from solenoid to ignition, and now won't cut off! Is ot possibly a relay switch problem or maybe grounding problem?
I'm new to fixing mowers, but ready and willing to dig in!

First, welcome to OCC..... :Welcome2:

What do you mean by "ignition"....??? :bigthink:

Can you supply a better description or meaning. :bigthink:

I would suggest that you not jump into "shot gunning" your tractor with parts but rather find the actual problem, then fixing that.
:ThumbsUp:

Hi there and welcome!

Looking at your post, did you change ignition switch possibly? If so was it an aftermarket switch? If yes to either start by getting cub cadet OEM switch and make sure its wired correctly.
