Message:   My 9N won't start. New battery is in (my brother converted it previously a year ago from 6-Volt to 12-Volt). I might have reversed the +/- terminals accidently as it did spark. Did I fry the electrical system? I charged up battery three times but still nothing...won't turn over and start up. I noticed from another posting to the forum that you're supposed to change the starter button when you convert to 12-Volts. Is that correct? I "inherited" the tractor from my Dad and brother and am not mechanically inclined but need it to plow up my acre. Weeds out of control!! Help!! Thanks for your response.

Alternator diodes can blow when you reverse polarity. Have your alternator checked at a parts store.
