I wouldn't feel too bad about having the OEM starter. The aftermarket's tended to be cheap anyway.
So, if the solenoid wasn't bad on your starter, the problem was likely the ignition switch. I've changed a few of them for that reason.... Otherwise, track the wiring down, find the bad pieces, and either replace the wire or splice a good piece in. I generally use 12 or 14 gauge wire. Whatever fuses the tractor has are forward of the instrument cluster, so just unscrew the cluster and pull it back. There should also be a fusible link in the main wire feeding the ignition switch. I replace that with an inline fuse. Hopefully all you have is a couple burnt wires, and it didn't let the smoke out of the regulator or alternator. HTH.
