If you want a basic straight forward simple as possible systematic troubleshooting procedure for determining the cause of non charging CHECK THE LINK BELOW. It can help find if the problem is the Generator or the Voltage Regulator or something in between. In Para 5 it shows how to essentially by pass the Voltage Regulator to see if it or the Generator is the problem. That's a simple test where you dead ground the gennys FLD post which calls for max charge to see if its a genny or a VR or other problem.
NOTE the Voltage Regulator and the Generator NEED GOOD GROUNDS TO WORK so check easy simple things first including good grounds on VR and Genny.

NOTE my test is for CLASS A CHARGING SYSTEMS if you have a Class B its different
NOTE the charging system must be intact and correct to work, hope yours is correct ????
NOTE if wired correct charging amps must get to and pass through the ammeter so if it were bad and and an open circuit the battery cant get charged

The generator was shot as well as all the wiring. I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that�s wha
