I've just finished fixing a blown head gasket on a used 850 I bought some time ago and milled the head 2 weeks ago, got it running, etc. But the wiring was a mess and I'm trying to straighten it out. Need some help.
It had a 12V conversion w/1 wire alternator and electronic ignition. A key switch was added, and a separate starter button also on left side of dash.
I have a new 4 wire solenoid. Two big terminals and two small. One small is labeled "F" and one is labeled "S".
I have two heavy wires coming in, one to Batt positive and one to Starter motor. I know those go on the two big terminals.
I have 3 smaller wires coming in. One used to be connected to S and the other two with big ring terminals used to be connected to the Batt+ big stud terminal. There was nothing on the "F" terminal.
I suspect that the last owner didn't have this wired right because the tractor tended to start when the starter button was let off. I think I've seen something somewhere that say that the "S" terminal wiring is at fault if this is happening.
What should S be connected to.
A schematic for the above type system would be great if anyone has a link! I've googled about a dozen schematics, and none of them shows my situation above -- particularly the 4 wire solenoid and 1 wire alternator combination.
Thanks for your help!
