ive diagnosed myself into a corner, while brush hogging at night, [ the only time i have] my jubilee shorted its lights out about 10;30 pm, , after finding my way out of the field in full dark! i found that even though i had a fuse in the power wire, [ these are added on lights, the jube never had factory lights] it had shorted out the whole mess, grounded power wire, but it didnt blow the fuse, impossible i thought, also the alternator [ 3 wire] went bad, but that may have been out when i started, anyway, went to diagnose, power to the switch thru the fuse, no power from the switch, i replaced the switch [ heavy duty toggle switch] power to the light now, but doesnt work, check ground, ground good, direct to bare tractor cast rear end housing, still no light, remove light from the fender, direct wire to battery and it works just fine WHT!? what am i missing, new alternator will not turn off the 194 litebulb either, but it may be because the battery is fully charged, the lights would put a load on the alternator if they worked, i just dont want the tractor to die out in the field with a dead battery and leave me walking in the dark, i want to be sure it all works before i go back out in there at night
