Hello,
I have a Long 2460DTC 4x4 tractor. My late father in law owned it before me. Sometime in its life the alternator was replaced with a standard old school chevy alternator from a late 80's Camaro or similar. It has a built in voltage regulator from what I can tell. The factory regulator is still on the firewall but I do not know if it still works. There are wires going to it.
The problem I have is that my fuel gauge is the only gauge working with any of the switch functions. The gauge lights and headlights work under the specific switch functions. I have checked the fuses under the hood and they all test good. I have the service manual for the 460 series but it does not have the same RPM/hourmeter as the 2460. The 460 was controlled by a drive gear for it.
None of the indicator lights on the right work either. I am thinking they don't have all the wires connected as the new alternator does not have terminals for them. I may have to buy an original alternator. Not sure at this point.
I have the 2460 parts manual but a few pages of the Instrumentation section are missing. If anyone has them to share, let me know.
If I can figure out how to get the gauges working, I am thinking about putting a blade style fuse block in place of the ceramic fuses.
Any insight to my issue would be greatly appreciated.
