The JD 3010 could have a 24 volt starting circuit. It is older and a Waterloo designed tractor. Your 2130 is a Mannheim designed tractor. They never where 24 volt and you would fry the wiring harness. Like the others have told you. 1) Install new/good battery cables from each battery to the starter and ground to the starter bolts. NOT THE Factory two post on one cable. Two single cables. 2) You need a good load test on your old batteries. Two ways to do that. A) While installed in the tractor take a volt meter and see what the voltage is on each battery while cranking. Anything below 10-10.5 volts is bad. B) Take them to someone that has a good carbon pile battery load tester. It is not one of the little ones you hookup and flip a toggle switch. The good ones will have a turn knob that you dial down the load on the battery. They will give you a good test. I had a JD 2630 tractor and it started hard until I ran individual positive and negative battery cables. When these tractor where in daily use around here I kept a set of cables for them in my service track. Switched a lot of them over. The orginal design was even worse than the two post cable. It used two cables and one hooked under the battery post clamp bolt. They would work for the first few months and then you where just using one battery.
