There is a heavy (10ga) wire hooked to the battery cable stud on the Relay (that thing is a relay, not a solenoid, but is is often called the wrong thing by tradition, oh well) that wire goes only to the amp gauge. it should be the only thing on that side of the amp gauge. From the other side of the amp gauge a wire(12GA)(among many other) should go to the ignition Key. This supplies volts to the coil. Another from that gauge terminal goes to the starter button. From the starter button, a 12ga wire goes to the small terminal on the Relay in the picture (should have an S near it)closest to the battery connected stud. This energizes the relay causing the starter to spin. A 12 gauge wire from the farther terminal (next to the starter connected stud) Usually with an I label next to it, goes to the ignition coil. It connects to the coil on the coil terminal not connected to the distributor. This wire gives full starting voltage to the coil bypassing the ballast resistor. If the tractor is 6 volt, or has no dropping resistor, this wire and terminal can be ignored. I hope this helps. Jim

This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit
