I recently acquired a Cub Cadet 125 with electrical issues. When I connected a battery the starter, generator began turning the engine over with the key in the off position. Any ideas as to where I should start looking? Could it be a bad part, miss connected wire or both?

Bad voltage regulator…..
Will check it out. Thanks.
p.s. I hate electrical issues.
I had a wire wrong on the voltage regulator and it did that,the regulator was fine. I'm not home to look but I think it was the single wire on the left side,it needed to be on the backside

Get a wiring diagram of the 125. Then check for proper wiring and clean all connections so you will have good continuity. Also ohm out all switches to make sure they work.

Thank you. I will check that out. That wire had been spliced; they may have done a poor job.

I see you have 21 messages. Have you learned where the sticky threads are? press the Forums tab, then scroll down to IH Cub Cadet Tractor forum. The first six threads stay in their positions. This is because they have a wealth of information, including wiring diagrams (fancy colored ones from Roland).
Here is the 125:
