Respectfully, I did mean resistor. Please remember, the alternator discharge indicator light (idiot light) is nothing more than a resistor that transforms the resulting voltage drop into light and heat while the regular resistor only gives off heat. So if the tractor doesn't have an indicator light, a resistor can be substituted as long as it has sufficient resistance (ohms) to prevent the alternator's diode trio from powering the coil after the ignition switch is opened, thereby allowing the engine to shutdown instead of running on. Of course, a properly rated diode performs the same function when a reverse bias causes a similar voltage drop. Our conceptual difference may be based on how our individual tractors have their electrical systems set up. Please have a good day and a better tomorrow.

As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
