Dan, I was raised with the old 6 volt Farmall systems, and still have 2 of them. The output of the charging systems when working properly frequently has enough noise (regulater switching, brushes crossing segments, etc.) to confuse many digital voltmeters. Take a reading with an analog voltmeter. Also it has already been mentioned that you should try another battery. Occasionally batterys will sulphate up and show a false charge that will cause a voltage regulator to shut off, but when force charged (such as when you grounded the F lead) will go ahead and take a charge. When cars and trucks were still 6 volts we would use them in the pickup until they quit charging and then switch them to our H which had the manual charge control (4 position light switch with generator cutout) and could use them there for another year or two due to the tractor force charging it.
