SERVICING ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Fuses are installed to protect the tractor’s electrical
system from damage caused by excessive amper-
age. Always use the same capacity fuse for
replacement. If the electrical system does not func-
tion, check for blown fuses. See Figure 41
If you have a recurring problem with blown fuses,
have the tractor’s electrical system checked by your
Cub Cadet dealer.
Figure 41
Accessing the Fuse Center
The fuse center is located on the inside right of the
dash panel. To access the fuse center, remove the
dash panel insert by removing the two screws. See
Figure 42.
Reposition the dash panel insert in the dash and
secure with the two screws to cover the fuse center.
Figure 42
Instrument Panel Fuses
The instrument panel’s circuitry is protected by the
two fuses in the fuse center. If the instrument panel
does not function properly, check the fuses.
• Pull the two fuses from the fuse center and
check their condition. Replace a blown fuse
with the same capacity fuse (3 Amp). Refer to
Figure 43.
Relays
The PTO relay and dash power relay, located in the
fuse center, maintain power to each of those
circuits. If one of the circuits is not functioning
properly, have your dealer electrically check the
relay. See Figure 43.

Main Fuse
The main fuse in the tractor wire harness protects
the tractor’s entire electrical system. A blown main
fuse will prevent battery current from passing
though the harness.
To replace the main fuse:
• Raise the tractor hood and remove the right
side panel.
• Locate the main fuse under the dash panel,
along the tractor’s right frame rail. See Figure 44.
Figure 44
• Pull the fuse from the fuse holder and replace
with the same capacity fuse (30 Amp). NEVER
use a higher amperage fuse.
• Install the side panel and lower the tractor
hood.
