The battery in my MF 202 (very similar to 35) seems to take and hold a charge well when out of the tractor but when I leave it sit for a day or two it is drained to the point where it won't even roll it over.
I have checked and replaced a lot of the wiring and everything runs off the key switch. The only thing that has a direct connection to the battery is the generator. It seems to charge just fine so I'm wondering if it is presenting a load on the battery when the tractor is turned off. Is there anything in the generator or regulator that might cause this? I guess it might also be that my battery is just shot too.
I have not yet done a current draw test but I will.
