Yes, belt tension could be part of the problem; it's a good idea to check it whenever you have the hood open. It should deflect about 1/2" at the middle of the span between the alternator pulley and the water pump pulley. If you can rotate it in place enough to see the underside it should NOT look/be glazed like an Easter ham!
It should not squeal like a pig at a pig roast either!
If it's glazed or has chunks missing or it has visible cracks, replace it and keep a spare, just in case for future use. Better to have one on hand if an old one breaks in either sub-zero or 101+ degree weather, miles from the barn, right?
External voltage regulators usually have a plug in harness with 3-4 wires which match what goes to the alternator. Sometimes they're hardwired with no connector at the regulator. They're usually on the firewall or fairly close to the alternator.
Internal v. regs are usually a small separate unit/black box built into the back of the alternator, near where the wires exit. If the shop checked the alternator properly they would have also checked the v.reg, if built into the alternator.
Does anyone have a wiring diagram for this model tractor?
