Hi Diana!

Most likely your regulator was simply worn out (they do that...). Or possibly some water got inside it which caused the contacts to corrode.

Anyway replacing the regulator, then making sure it's properly connected and that the base is grounded (it's tightly bolted to shiney - not rusty or painted - metal) should solve your problem.

Note you can tell whether the regulator is sticking closed by looking at the ammeter after you shut the tractor down. The needle should be centered at 0.

If the needle deflected at all to the left it tells you current is being drained from the battery. ...Bob M
