As far as the starter turning, that would depend on where your ground wire connects. But Yes it could be.
I always say:
The three most important things to remember about the IH built Cub Cadet electrical systems are:
1.) Check and clean your grounds.
2.) Check and clean your grounds.
and
3.) Check and clean your grounds.
I know that sound like I'm being a smart a$$, but the truth is; bad grounds have been the real cause of problems from timing to carburetion. If you have a bad ground it can cause you to chase your tail and you never will get the problem solved. You would be surprised how many carburetors have been adjusted or rebuilt because of a bad ground.
SO, the other thing I always say is... 98% of all carburetor problems are electrical!
