My tractor is 6 volt and i have just rewired it according to the diagram located on nseries.com.
naturally it is positive ground but when i attach the negative cable to the battery i see sparks and over a short period of time the battery will die!
what in the world have i done wrong? i am tired of looking at the tractor and the wiring diagram!
1952 8n.

fred , I do not know which schematic you are using but some of the drawings are rather confusing as to what is a connection and what is not. IMO, you can not beat a new set of wiring from one of the bb sponsors. $15--$20 ray

Assuming that the key is in the off position, there should be no current draw from the battery. It is best to disconnect all the wires going to the minus on the battery. Main tie point on the terminal board. Reconnect them one at a time and find the one that will draw current. Then trace out that wire. Happy Motoring
