Respectfully, I did mean resistor. Please remember, the alternator discharge indicator light (idiot light) is nothing more than a resistor that transforms the resulting voltage drop into light and heat while the regular resistor only gives off heat. So if the tractor doesn't have an indicator light, a resistor can be substituted as long as it has sufficient resistance (ohms) to prevent the alternator's diode trio from powering the coil after the ignition switch is opened, thereby allowing the engine to shutdown instead of running on. Of course, a properly rated diode performs the same function when a reverse bias causes a similar voltage drop. Our conceptual difference may be based on how our individual tractors have their electrical systems set up. Please have a good day and a better tomorrow.

Sunday Drives - by Cowboy. Summer was finally upon us here in Northern Maine. We have two types of industry up here, one being "Forestry" (Wood Products) and the other "Farming" (Potatoes). There is no shortage of farm tractors and equipment around here! I have been restoring old Farm Tractors for the past 6 years, and have found it easier and less expensive to hit all the auctions and purchase whole tractors for parts needed. My wife who works at a local school, and only has weekends and summers off, while on t
