If your tractor is set up as it left the factory, and you have a battery discharge issue, typically the RH battery will get " drained" by the generator or starter having conductive brush dust/debris/moisture in it.
A few of us crusty old DEERE GURUS understand and appreciate the General Motors/DEERE 24 Volt system that was used, for the rest of you it can be a $$$ heartache unless you take the time to read up on it and understand it or have a knowledgeable "tractor buddy" to help.

1. A 24 Volt 4020 diesel is probably NOT the best choice for a tractor novice.
2. It's a darned good system when maintained properly, but a nightmare if not and exposed to a "wrench" that doesn't understand it.
3. Many have been converted to a 12 Volt system (and I can forward a diagram as to how to do that, if you'd like) but the danged OEM 24 Volt system sure does crank the snot out of the engine when in good condition.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
