925-06119c Ignition Switch Module for Cub Cadet XT1 XT2 LTX/Troy-Bilt/MTD Craftsman Models | Cub Cadet Starter Switch Replaces 725-04227 | 7 Terminals | with 2 Key

What It Is

This is a 7-terminal ignition switch module that controls starting and shutting off the engine on select Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, MTD, and Craftsman lawn tractors. It’s designed as a direct OEM replacement for the original switch, including two keys.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, check these three things:

1. Model series – Fits Cub Cadet XT1, XT2, LTX series; also Troy-Bilt, MTD, and Craftsman models that originally used part 725-04227. Not universal—cross-reference your machine’s model number.
2. Deck size – Not relevant here; compatibility is based on the tractor chassis and wiring harness, not deck width.
3. Terminals – Has 7 blade terminals (male spades). Count your original switch’s terminals—if yours has 5 or 6, this won’t match. Measure terminal spacing (roughly 0.25” apart) to confirm plug fit.
4. Key profile – The included keys are specific to this module; they won’t match other Cub Cadet switches.

Quick check: Look up your tractor’s OEM part number on the old switch or in the manual. If it ends in 725-04227, this fits.

Key Things to Know

• Quality – Aftermarket replacement, not genuine Cub Cadet. Most buyers report it works fine, but a few note the key feels slightly looser than OEM.
• Installation – Easy swap: disconnect battery, unplug old module, plug in new one, and secure with the same screws. No wiring modification needed.
• Common gotcha – The key positions (OFF/RUN/START) are standard, but some users find the “START” position requires a firm turn. Test before fully reassembling.
• No diode built-in – Some original modules include a suppression diode; this one doesn’t. If your tractor has electrical noise issues, consider a genuine OEM part.

Should You Buy It

If your Cub Cadet XT1, XT2, or compatible MTD/Craftsman tractor’s ignition switch is worn or dead, this is a solid budget-friendly fix. It’s not a premium OEM part, but for $21.99, it reliably restores start/stop function—just verify your terminal count and model number first.
