I hooked the wires up like Bob M has in his diagrams for a Super A that has been converted to a 12 volt (photo 11 of 16). Everything worked fine but after I got a new AM meter you could tell it was not getting a charge to the battery and in fact would run down after you started it a few times. I took the tractor to a mechanic and he hooked up a jumper to the #1 post on the alternator and then it started charging. Sat it at the store for a while and then I saw it was discharging all the time and again the battery was dead. I took the jumper wire off that the mechanic had installed and jumped the tractor off with jumper cables. Low and behold it showed it was charging. So I ended up with it just like I started out with but now it worked. Why? Did the jumper wire polorize it or something.
