71 & no start
My 71 is doing much the same thing. I am 100% sure the wiring harness is hooked up right, and I put the voltage regulator back to spec. New ignition switch and new solenoid. Good battery. Checked the grounds, too. Nothing happens when i turn the key. What connections should I check to diagnose what with my voltmeter? possible shorts?

Did you check and verify that your safety switch is working correctly?

Agreed. Only one safety switch between S terminal of KYS and solenoid coil. In start position you should have positive battery volts at starter solenoid coil terminal, some people jump out safety switch (for test purposes only). An automotive blade fuse does a good yob too. Here's a link to make sure you have wiring right too

I'd check safety switches. Also, you said you put on a new key switch, did you make sure you got the right one? They make two, one for a mag and one for a coil.

Welcome to OCC.
It would appear that we have a mystery to solve with almost none of the facts. So you just went out one day and this was the situation? What makes you "100% sure that the wiring harness is hooked up right"? Was it not hooked up at one time? What does "put the voltage regulator back to spec." mean? To answer your question, using your meter/test light and your wiring diagram. Start with the battery, Pos - Neg, then Neg to what is next in the electrical path until electricity ceases to be present.

To the OP.....
Take a long jumper wire. Connect one end to the positive (+) Battery Terminal. With the other end, touch the "small" terminal of the solenoid (Orange/Black) and see if it rolls over. Let us know.

If it does start to turn over then does that mean the safety switch is bad?

This thread is 8+ yrs old.
It means that 12VDC+ is not getting to the Starter Solenoid. That could mean a Safety Switch, Ignition Switch, and or bad/broken wire.

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.
