IT is wired wrong, but easy to fix. The wire with the diode needs to connect to the ignition circuit at the ignition switch terminal attached to the coil or ballast resistor. if it is a Mag neto equipped tractor, the wire needs to be attached to a source of voltage that is on when the tractor is running, and off when it is stopped. An oil pressure switch that is open with no pressure, and closed when under pressure is ideal for this, as it is automatic (NAPA has them). The wire with diode goes to this new switch ("T"ed into the oil pressure port.) and the switch is supplied with voltage from the starter switch on the hot terminal. A plain SPST toggle switch can be used in place of the oil pressure switch, but it must be turned on manually and off manually each time the tractor is operated. The other end of the diode wire (whether Mag or Coil ignition) goes to the #1 terminal on the alt, not the #2 as it is now. The diode must have its band marked end toward the alt. The #2 terminal on the alt must be hooked to the Bat terminal (short wire). This should make it work, Get back to us with the results. Jim
