Hey guys,
I asked this question in Farmall board, and I'm not really getting the answer I am looking for.. so I'm gonna ask here.
I'm converting my Farmall cub over to 12V. It will still be generator, NOT an alternator. I'm not sure if it had a cut-out on it before or not, I believe it should have been a voltage regulator.. All i can do is ask the rebuilder when I pick it up if it was a cut-out or a V-reg.
The way it was wired when I pulled it seems to be the 2 posts of the generator were connected to the V.reg/cutout and the 3rd wire appears to run back to the "switch box"
Will I have to do any wiring change? If I do, can someone help tell me what I'd have to do?
I already understand I have to change the regulator (which will be done by the rebuilder) and that swapping to negative ground would be better, and that I have to change light bulbs. Mag ignition, so no change of polarity on the coil, will have to change polarity on ammeter though.
