The short wire from field to cutout is hooked to a resistor inside the cutout. That resistor is intended to be used when your tractor has no lights, just a starter. With no lights you would not have a light switch to control charge rate thus by hooking to that terminal on cutout you would have a permanent low charge situation. Some one in the past has had a no charge situation and found out that by hooking to that terminal he could get a low charge. What you need to do is get a good ground at the light switch so high and low charge both work. Realize, the light switch has to ground to the cover, cover to box, box to post, post to transmission. I often run a ground wire right from back side of switch right back to the generator to eliminate all rusty connections. Of course you have to know if generator works so ground that field wire direct. If it charges then generator is probably ok. If not either generator is bad or other side of wiring back through amp meter to battery.
