Using a small flat bladed screw driver in the slot of the bulb socket, turn the socket approxi- mately a quarter turn counterclockwise to un- lock from the instrument panel. Carefully with- draw from the panel. Note the position of the bulb socket locking tabs.

Insert the new bulb/socket assembly into the instrument panel in the same manner, making certain the locking tabs of the socket engage the slots of the instrument panel.

Turn the socket approximately a quarter turn clockwise to lock in place and reinsert the seal plug into the panel opening.

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 37

If you have a recurring problem with blown fuses, have the tractor’s electrical system checked by your Cub Cadet dealer.

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 39.

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 39.
