Ammeter - 450

Posted by Illinois Boy on September 19, 2005 at 07:16:06 from (12.220.37.158):

My neighbor has a Farmall 450 he"s restoring and says the ammeter has never worked since he"s owned the tractor. (12V conversion) I told him I"d contact the experts on this one... : >
What would cause an ammeter to simply not work? (Besides a bad gauge...) No discharge or charge
All connections are tight and clean. I was wondering about the generator and if, in fact, it may be a 6V that was never changed, which would explain the "no charge" problem, but not the no discharge.
Voltage reg????

Any ideas or help would be appreciated.
