The generator on my M has kicked the bucket. I do a fair amount of electric motor repair so I figured I"d take it apart and fix it. After dis-assembling and doing some testing I found that the armature coils have shorted. Thats one repair I don"t do on my own. I"m trying to decide on the best replacement method to follow. Here are the options I see: 1. Replacement armature for 6V Gen. Price $96 2. 6V Pos. ground Alt. Price $97 3. 12V Neg. Gnd. Alt. w/ 12V bulbs, 12V battery Price $$$ Option 1 would be the simplest and still original, but it may be the least reliable due to other old parts on the generator... Option 2 would be fairly simple other than some bracket making and wouldn"t require new, battery and bulbs... Option 3 would be more expensive and time consuming to install, but it would be all new and the tractor would start better on the 12V... *Right now the tractor is sluggish starting when cold with a fully charged 6V battery w/ 2 gauge new cable and all good connections. What would you go with?
