Well I'm not much for the green paint, but usually about everything is negative-ground. I doubt you've got a 24v system; I've never heard of it anyway. Usually the batteries are in parallel (+ to +, - to -) to keep the voltage the same and raise (double) the current.

Of course, the older John Deeres (I have an A like this, anyway) were positive-ground. So I can't give a straight answer here. But I suspect in the later models that they would've changed to the more common negative-ground configuration.

Could it be a starter problem? Well, I have an IH 756 with similar behavior. I'm told it could be either bad brushes or a solenoid problem. So, yes, it can be a starter problem. Or it could be a wiring problem. I've seen that a few times, particularly with tractors with a more than a few years on 'em. I like to replace the wiring on my tractors once they start acting up like this.

Just a few thoughts, from one of the 'newbies' on this board. :)
