merle t said: (quoted from post at 21:59:42 04/13/12) I wired my farmall model a using the wiring diagram. alternator to amp and amp to starter side thru solnoid also jumper to switch will start fine but does not shut off even when I pull the ground cable. have been going thru ballast restors also help

My drawing is bad, I know. This is how I did my Farmall 240 I used one Radio Shack switching diode 1N914-1N4148. They come in a 10 pack for a couple bucks. Used an indicator lamp assembly 272--0336 for an idiot light. I added the diode to the light since the light is a 100mA LED it only works for indication and does not have enough power draw, so the diode was needed as well. I left the ammeter in place, but if I have the dash apart again, I would switch to a volt meter. That would be more useful. Hope this information is useful.
