I store a cub cadet lx 1045 for an elderly neighbor during the winter. Today I was in a hurry and re-installed the battery for him so he could mow. When I hit the key, the starter just clicked and everything went dead. no lights, no dash, no gauges. nothing.... at first I thought it was a dead battery and went to get another one. When I got back I noticed the switched cables. What do you think I did? Am I lucky enough to get away with a blown fuse? The only fuse location I can locate on line is one under the seat along side the battery. I havent even looked at it again and I'm sick over it. Does anyone have any advise on what it might be? Thanks in advance for any help.
Repairs reversed battery cables..uuuggghhh

Thank you for your help thats exactly what it was. I found the fuse, replaced it and it started right up. I got lucky I guess
Thank you so much for your help. The wiring diagram found the fuse for me and it was blown. Replaced it and it started right up. I got lucky.
Thank you for your help. I found the fuse, it was blown, replaced it and it started right up, glad I didnt do any more damage.
