9n will not start....help
« on: April 12, 2010, 11:58:08 AM »
Ok, here it goes.  I've replace the battery, voltage regulator, starter switch, generator, and rewired the tractor with the wiring harness kit.  Prior to putting it up for the winter I replaced the voltage regulator.  I did this because my amp meter needle would run at the max, and when I would turn it off the needle would drop into the negative.  Only after tapping the voltage regulator would the amp needle set back to zero.  Also the battery kept draining after every few days of running it.  I attempted to adjust the amp meter by turning the screw on the generator but the amp needle never changed.  A few weeks ago I uncovered the tractor, replaced the generator and threw the battery in and it would not turn over, not a sound, nothing.  I charged the battery and still no luck, the tractor was dead.  I bought a new battery and still nothing, no sound, no attempt to turn over.  So that's when I replaced the wiring harness, and the starter switch.  Today I pushed the starter button and nothing, no noise, no attempt to turn over, nothing.  The only thing that happens is when I turn the key the amp meter drops into the negative, other than that, it just acts dead.  Where should I trouble shoot next? 

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Chris
