I have a 1952 12V TEA20-85 Ferguson Tractor and I am having some starting issue which are electrical...I think. The problem first started as if it was a starter issue at times the tractor would start just find, but sometimes when I would push in the gear stick into the starting position all I would get is a "humming noise", the starter would not turn over it would seem. I replaced the starter and at first it turned over but then some smoke could be seen from the electrical block that attaches onto the frame of the tractor below the battery, see attached picture. I again tried to start the tractor and was again getting the "humming noise" but nothing was happening. Not sure what is going on here, any insight would be appreciated. This tractor does have a key that you must turn to allow the gear stick to start the unit.
