Cub Cadet 100 wire harness melt-down
Hey, fellow Cubie's,
Never had this happen before! After I was done mowing Saturday and shut tractor off, it still was trying to turn over. My grandson said, hey look, it's smoking. I just said it probably is just dust. But then it started smoking worse. I took closer look, and it was by Regulater up front. I kept tuning key on-off, but did not matter. Finally got out wrench and disconnected negative lead on battery. Battery was sparking on Neg terminal as I was doing this. After finally getting it disconnected, I checked ignition switch and starter push button with Ohm meter. Both appear to check OK. Took voltage regulator in to get tested, and it was fried.The place I took regulator to replaced it with no questions asked! What I don't know is if the regulator was the cause, or if it was a casualty of somethig else. I do know, that half of my wire harness has to be replaced. Does anyone have suggestions on what else to check? Could my starter generator have anything to do with it? Thanks ahead of time for any suggestions.  Martin (wappler-the-cub-man)

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.
