My 54 Farmall Super C electrical system has been in bad shape for years and hasn"t charged the battery. Its all original with the 6 volt battery and generator and 4 terminal voltage regulator. Mice and rats have eaten the wiring off everything. I have been running it by crank starting it since it has a magneto. I just finished rewiring all of it with the correct size wires and terminals, and the lights all work and amp meter now shows discharge when the lights are turned on (it didn"t before). My question is (I haven"t started the engine yet) how do I polarize the generator again? I have done it before but somehow my wife has hidden all my tractor books since she rearraged the house. Do I momentarily jump a wire from the BAT terminal on the voltage regulator to the A terminal on the generator? I now have proper battery voltage on the BAT terminal which I didn"t before the rewire. Its a positive ground system as original.
