Hi everybody I am trying to diagnose a no charge and battery draining problem with one of my farmall 450's. The battery I have is old but will take a charge on the charger and work fine for a while when I hook it up to the cables in the tractor I can here the voltage regulator make a faint click with the ignition off. I started checking wiring today and found everything to be fine. With all the wiring disconnected to the regulator except the wire that runs from the starter main terminal with the battery cable to the regulator, still hooked up to the regulator I still get a click in the regulator ( the upper contact pulling close when hooking up the battery). Could the regulator be shorted internally causing my problems. I checked my other 450 and it does not do this and it charges fine.
Thanks for the help
