Power to ignition switch

[John Kliesrath]

New owner to site and Cub cadets. I acquired a 2182 and have no power to ignition switch bypassed fuse from starter. Trying to find out witch color wire is power also it is a six prong switch with a 5 prong connecter and only 4 sets of wires. Was running when parked.

You sure it's not a 1282?

 

[John Kliesrath]

Yes it has a 3 Cyl Kubota.

It is a MTD Cub Cadet it is one of the earlier models no plastic parts

The front end is plastic on those, but is certainly built far better than the ones that came after it.

Too new for me to know anything about!
Is the engine a diesel?

2182 is also known as one of the “supers” and as a “cyclops,” is that correct fellas?
