I cannot keep my JD-630 charging. I have a 12 volt positive ground generator. I put new brushes/bearings in the generator. A year ago, a new regulator. The tractor wiring is new.
The only way I can get my generator to charge is to jump the "Bat" to the "Gen" on the voltage regulator. The tractor will charge 13+ volts for awhile. After a couple minutes, the generator will quit charging and drop back to the battery 12.4. If I polarize the generator again, the tractor will charge for a few minutes. Then quit. I am using a voltage meter to check my battery voltages too. Once the generator quits charging, it will not charge again. I can turn on the lights and the amp meter shows a strong discharge.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
