Thanks M. Mine had no clicking and no voltage much past the power input. Been a while since I had it open but what is the power flow in those for troubleshooting purposes? Input to scr to thermal fuse to output transformer or what? What causes the clicking to take place? Seems like there would be a big capacitor to do that. Also wonder if it is the output transformer that generates the juice, then could you use one with a higher output?
I have an old plug in charger out in the barn that doesn't work. Connections are kinda rusty. I may open it up and see what it looks like. Don't remember if it is a solid state one or one designed to burn weeds. Seems like they used to have some powerfull chargers.
One thing I've noticed about my Zareba low impedance 100 miler is that any weeds anywhere on the line will lower the voltage. It is rated at 14kv (14000v)and on a clear wire, it will max out my zareba digital voltage tester at 9.9kv. Anytime anything touches the wire, it reduces the voltage. Even lots of weeds and grass. It doesn't burn them very quick. I use mine around a brome pasture and at this time of year it grows tall enough to touch the bottom wire which can reduce it down to about 2kv unless we mow and spray for weeds under the fence line. The good thing (or maybe bad depending upon point of view) about the low impedance charger is that when something is touching the wire and reduces the voltage, it does it along the whole wire so I can just test it at the charger instead of walking the entire wire to see if it is shorted somewhere. Around the corral, it would max out at 9.9 kv. When I opened up part of the pasture for the horses last weekend, it dropped down to about 6kv but I know there was some brome touching it in some places that we didn't get mowed well.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
