1962-63 Ford 4000 tractor:
Does anyone have wiring digram for a 12 volt with alternator. The alternator has a bulit regulator. I think I have all the required componets for the conversion but the wiring digram that my manual shows is a 12 volt system with a generator and regulator.
Can any Help,
Thanks,
alg

Basically, you connect the alternator to the lead that WAS formerly connected to the "BATT" terminal on the ex-generator's voltage regulator, and "source" "switched excite" power from the load side of the key switch.

You can use the diode, as shown, or directly substitute a #194 lamp set up as an "idiot" light. Other minature lamps of similar current draw will work, too.
