- MF 35 + Ferguson TO 30
The above tractor is a new purchase and has low hours. It was in storage for about 20 years. I am in the process of rewiring or repairing current wires. Grounds need cleaning due to non usage. The problem is the charging system. If I take off the wires from the generator and hook up a multi meter I get no reading. The amp gauge reads 0. I took the cover off the regulator. One set of points look okay and the other looks burnt. When I took the generator to the auto parts for checking it read a voltage output that was inconsistent. Fluctuation between 9 and 13 volts. It was suggested I take it apart and clean the armature and free up the brush holder and springs which I did. One brush assembly was partially frozen. I am going to take the generator back to the auto parts store for rechecking but I should have gotten a reading on the tractor. Any Suggestions??
