Hey all! I have a 45 farmall M that a converted to
12 volt about a year ago. I used a Delco Remy
10SI which I think is the recommended alternator.
I did not follow any wiring plan, I just ran one
wire from the BATT stud to one side of the amp
gauge. This set up worked for about 8 months, and
then all of sudden stop charging. I just now got
around to fixing it. The alternator has proper
ground but just is not putting out good voltage.
So I had O’Rileys check it and they said that the
alternator was good.
Moving forward I went to this site and I used the
wiring diagram by Bob Melvile. After getting all
the needed components and wiring it up the tractor
still will not charge. I get the same voltage out
of the alternator with the tractor on or off.
So I’m stumped I have been told the alternator is
good yet I can’t seem to get it to work. And the
alternator did work with only connecting one wire.
If any of you guys could tell me what would work
that would be awesome.
Thanks!
