Lights won't wor on Farmall Cub

jamesdwight2 · Aug 19, 2009

Lights on my Farmall Cub just quit working. I checked the 20 amp fuse and yes it was brokken, I replaced fuse. I checked all wiring for breakage or being grounde out. Wiring going to teardrop lights (about 10") were worn and cracked, installed new wiring and connection. I took light switch off and checked wiring evert hing seemed ok. What can i not be doin right or should I say what am I doing wrong. No I did not replace any wiring to the starter,fuse,regulator,ammeter,generator,light switch or starter.
Thanks for any help.

You need a little meter and check for volts and ground doesent seem that all would have a bad ground but its possible. Just follow the voltage from the sw to the lite and you will find it. If you read batt volts at the terminal then you have to take the lite apart and follow up.

First of all is it 6 or 12 volt? Perhaps the lights are not grounded good. The lights generally have one wire to the light and the fixture needs to be well grounded. Also, does the wire run from one light to another? If left out doors some rust on any connecting part can interrupt the ground. A similar thing happened to my A and I had to clean and polish every contact to get them to work. I since had learned to put a coat of liquid electical tape on each connection to prevent water getting in. Henry PS I since have run 1 wire to each light. HEH
