My Cub Cadet SLTX 1054 will turn over, but will not fire. We know that we are getting gas to the carburetor, but the mower will not fire. Help please.

Apparently quite a few people in Internet Land have a problems similar to yours, it turns over but does not start
some solutions were
- check the fuse to make sure it's functioning; it would be found on the left side of the battery box as you look at the mower from the front.
- check the terminal marked 'b' which should be hot all the time. If there is voltage there, then you don't need to check for the fuse, but if there's not then check fuse
- if the starter seems to be labouring to turn over the engine, you may have to replace the starter or put a 200 amp booster on it in order for it to start.
I am of the mind to go right to the source when expensive items don't work as they give the best info and you have less of a chance of causing more damage if you go monkeying around with things willy nilly! Their contact info is below:
They can also tell you if there have been any recalls, which could mean a free fix and free is good!
You could also see if your local shop will give a free repair estimate. That may help you decide next steps.
Good luck!
You could have issues with the starter.
