Help needed! Electrical grimlin strikes again!
Ok so im completely stumped and a little PO'd with the electrical system on my 123. I have completely replaced the following with new parts and followed both the diagrams in the tech section and in the manual. New parts include: battery, coil, condenser, voltage regulator, points, points push rod, wire harness, key switch, coil wire, spark plug, and solonoid.
The S/G has been rebuilt twice now, V/R has been polorized correctly, and the timing is set per Matt G's guide. All connections are tight and clean and yet i cant even get the solonoid to grind.    Maybe ive over looked something. Feel like im  . A new set of eyes or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

How many posts does your solenoid have? It may not be grounded correctly.

Recently I saw a post on here about a similar problem. It turned out to be the the amp gage in the dash. It must have continuity through it for the charging circuit, but I am not sure if the ignition circuit is through the gage or not. You could check for 12volts at the coil with the key on. Wouldn't hurt to check out battery voltage at the battery. Good Luck!

I was also just looking at the wiring. Is your clutch safety switch hooked up and working? Brake pedal depressed while trying to start? Have you tried jumping the posts of the solenoid with a screwdriver to see if that will bump it?

Try bypassing it first to see if that is the problem. All you should have to do is unplug it and run a jumper wire in the plug to complete the circuit. If that doesn't help is probably not the switch.

my friend's 123 is at my house, it has an amp gage mounted to the steering tower. It stuck in my mind, as a normal thing.

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.
