The alternator on the IH 184, I recently picked up, isn't charging when connected through the ballast resistor, which is mounted on the alternator. The auto electric shop that tested it says it puts out 14.1 VDC by itself but won't put out anything through the resistor. This is how it was connected when I got the tractor.
The ballast resistor is rated at 25 ohms & I'm reading 24 on my meter.
Coming from the alternator, can I simply bypass the ballast resistor?
Thanks,
Gary
