Hello,
I found this site a few hours ago and have been searching for answers.
I have a 2007 Tiger Cub STC48V-19KAI Serial number C1600143.
about a month ago the blades quit while mowing. Still ran and drove fine but no power to the PTO. It ended up being the PTO switch melted. I replaced it and mowed my yard (2 acres) twice and my wife's grandmother's house, rent house, and empty lot (4 acres) once.
The next time i was mowing my yard, the mower died and the battery was dead. Jumped it off and ran fine until i engaged the blades after a few minutes, it died again. I did that cycle a few times until I realized that as it was dying if I turned on the blades it would run fine and the longer I ran without the blades, the longer it would last mowing. I finished my yard and started researching and measuring voltage and amp readings. I even talked to my neighbor who has a 2 year old tiger cat and measured his for comparison.
Today i took the battery to the interstate store and they load tested it and it was bad so I bought their strongest mower battery they had.
mowed half my yard, then died. It would start right up though. ended up burning the 20 amp fuse with the red wires. the fuse holders and wires get very hot when running. the stater voltage is good. My meter shows 0 on the resistance but its a cheap meter and I'm not sure how sensitive it is to get the .01-.1 ohms. the regulator output is 13.8-14.2 volts. at the battery while running its in the high 13's. the PTO is only taking 1.2 amps (neighbors was .3). I wouldn't think that would be enough to burn a fuse.
any ideas?
