i have an 860 ford tractor, sn 69881 I believe this makes it 1955. It has been converted to 12v.
I thought the solenoid was bad and replaced it with one from oreilly auto parts, a 2ss4.
After looking at the threads that popped up searching for solenoid, I believe I have it wired correctly: the 'bottom left' big nut to the starter, the 'top right' big nut to the battery and the wire from the alternator. The wire from the push button starter is wired to the S post. And I get nothing. If I short from the s post to the battery, the tractor will turn over.
I am open to any advise that can be provided.
