So, my new Cub RZT-L works fine for maybe 15 minutes, and then the PTO kicks off. I can push the switch down and back on and mow again, until about 30 minutes in. After that, it has to be parked, as if something is getting hot and needs to cool down. I changed the PTO switch and hunted for a relay, but no luck. Anyone familiar with this issue and a solution? thanks, Rob.

Give the model number off the serial number tags and I see if I can find an image of the wiring harness as there a relay. Relays circled in orange.

Also check the PTO connector wire terminals as they may be F56 terminal with cracked contact spring hinges. Note some Cubs are using a different style terminals but they still give problems.

I found at least two different harnesses used
