Really appreciate you making this video. My father-in-law thought his tractor was having an issue. I know nothing about the 6 volt positive ground system and your video helped immensely. Turns out he just has a gauge that was bad. His tractor is a 1954 Ford 800, Keep up the great work.

Rachel. Great video. I love your attention to detail. I have a small but significant problem and I'm hoping you or one of your viewers can help. I have a 1948 Plymouth with a 6 volt positive ground system. I'm having problems with the charging system. I have taken the generator completely apart and cleaned "everything" inside. I then performed the "motor" test on it where I grounded the field wire and connected the battery to it and it runs perfectly smooth. So I know everything in it seems right. I've confirmed that all the grounds related to the charging system are clean and well secured. I've even added a dedicated ground wire from the frame to the voltage regulator and directly to the positive side of the battery (ground). I have replaced the voltage regulator on it twice - and bench tested (two of the relays "engage" at around 6.8 add 7.2 volts respectively as I turn up the voltage slowly). The battery voltage in the car at rest is around 6.24 volts. However, when I start the car the voltage does not increase at all - no matter what RPM I increase the engine to. I've tried both analog and digital multi meters. I've removed the generator, wires and voltage regulator, checked and reassembled multiple times. Believe it or not, but I had a bad Ammeter and had to replace it - now the Ammeter works fine, but it only registers a drain on the battery and no charge. So my question is this - Can I disconnect "all" the wires from the generator and start the car to confirm that it is putting out voltage, or will this fry the generator? I 'm guessing that I should be able to start the car and see the voltage rise and then shut off the car quickly if it goes to high. My suspicion is that it will show no voltage. Oh, I forgot to mention that after my rebuild of the generator, I took it to a motor repair place and they hooked it up in the back room and said it was in great condition. However, I failed to ask them how many volts it was putting out - if any. Maybe they just did a motor test and that was how they tested - I'm not sure. Anyway, your video shows everything except how to confirm if the generator is putting out sufficient voltage. Any advice would be great! Thanks!

I see this was four months ago and you may have it charging by now,but just wondering if you polorized the generator,most of the time you have to do that to get them to charge correctly,and sometimes when you just disconnect a wire for any reason breaking the connection they may lose their polarity!

Hello, this is my first video of your series, I must say you present yourself well and have a respectable knowledge of electrical mechanics. I want to convey the message that early Cubs like mine came with the J-4 Magneto & the simple battery cable removal test is not valid on a magneto tractor. Also, I think you should point out that those tractors have a multiposition charge/headlamp switch & unless the switch knob rotated the charge system function is bypassed.

Racheal...in your video explaining how to rebuild the 6 v generator ("6 v system charging issue") the Farmall 300 has a 3 brush generator and a voltage regulator. In this video you say the 3 brush generator goes with a cutout and the voltage regulator goes with the 2 brush generator. I also have a 3 brush generator and voltage regulator on my 1955 Cub Lo-boy. Just thought you should know. But a very nice presentation none-the-less.

Tightening the generator support bolts also can be a more sure way to ground the generator to the frame if you dont ahve another jsumper lead handy to run back to the battery.Thanks for the great tips, I didnt realize there were 2 brush generators on any of the old IH 6 volters but that makes sense.You should do a video about the high-low- system in the farmal tractors and how to set the amperage with the brush movement.

My generator has three brushes however the model number of the generator warranted a new regulator not a cut out? The wiring of the system also indicated that i needed a regulator and not a cut out. The tractor doesn’t charge i pulled the positive bat terminal off - engine dies. Jump the feild wire To ground- no activity on the amp gauge. When i turn the lights on i do get a negative amp draw on the guard. The generator does pass the spin test. So i replaced the regulator. However the same issue is happening. I also tested the gen output and got plus 1.5 volts at the a terminal. Check the wiring and it appears to be correct. Also checked the regulator was grounded good and it is. Any help Will be much appreciated Thanks! Matt

Great video! I used your test methods (previously) to chase my problems to the voltage regulator. But I have changed it (multiple times) and they have blown each time. What happens is I install it and it charges fine. Then after the tractor sets for a little while, hour or so, and I go crank it up, it’s no longer charging and the VR is the culprit. Anybody have any idea what is going on? It’s a Farmall Super A. Thanks!

Most did. Most 6V regulators only work for positive ground. Some 12V regulators may say 12 V P/N on them. You can select the polarity on them just by hooking up the battery the way you want and then momentarily with a short piece of wire touch the GEN terminal and BAT terminals on the regulator. This polarizes your generator.

You seem to know your tractors very well, perhaaps you or someone else can help me. I am at my wits end. I have a ih756 with the german diesel. Charging system used to work despite several wires missing from connectors. Now it is not charging. I can full field the alternator (supply bat voltage to field wir)e and it will kick out 14 volts. I replaced the voltage regulator because it is hard to trace wires. Didn't work. Traced wires. Yellow field wire and brown R terminal wire from alternator are good back to VR (OHM out good). When running, amp light is on solid (was blinking- just a bad bulb) I have bat voltage on both sides of amp tellite. I have battery voltage on terminals 3 and 4 of VR. Nothing coming out of field term. on VR or Brown wire on 2 term. Any ideas?

It is 6 volt so have had to jump it with My Truck but My Uncle showed Me a “reverse” (not sure if I am saying it right🤣) way to jump it and that has worked. Once it is jumpstarted it runs Amazing but when I cut it off it will not start or turn over at all after running. Basically I have to jumpstart again. Today I bought a new 6v battery and hoped that would fix but when I took negative cable off to test like U said it cut off. I dont wanna keep battery hooked up cuz I dont want to run down battery but trying to see based upon symptoms of U could tell Me whether U think it is the Voltage Regulator or Generator is bad. Just for clarity once it is is started it will run with no problems until I turn off!!! I hope Yall can help and I Love Yalls Page!!!!

I'd say the engine is getting its ignition from the magneto, possibly an H-4 So the battery being dis-connected would only matter when starting. That cut-out may also be known as a reverse current relay, when the tractor is NOT running, this relay keeps the battery from draining thru the generator. When the tractor IS running and generator is putting out a couple more volts than battery voltage, the contacts close and charging the battery occurs. She is right, two brush generators have a two coil regulator, one is the reverse current, which keeps Bat hood up only when engine is running and Voltage regulator coil maintains proper voltage to the battery. 3 coil regulators not often used on a tractor, but have a current relay so if current being drawn is greater than generator's rated current, a resistance will be placed in field circuit so gen output will be lessened to avoid burning out the generator..

Some reverse current relays, I think all of them really, have two coils one is a shunt winding of many many turns of lite gage wire and over it is say 5 to 10 turns of a heavier gage wire, that would be the current coil. now when the gen is putting out say 7.5 to 8. volts, the shunt winding which is also a voltage coil will know it, as it is a voltage sensitive coil. it will pull the contacts together and charging commences. The shunt and current coils would be both wound in the same direction. the Current coil's magnetic field assists the voltage coil's magnetic field. Now when the engine slows and gen volts less than battery, current will flow back to the gen but very briefly. the magnetic field of current coil will be bucking that of the voltage coil, not enough magnetic pull to hold the contacts together or overcome spring tension. The heavier wire on the reverse current relay would be rated in amps the same as gen. output would be so if u swapped out a heavier regulator, say a 3 coil job that would be a voltage regulator, overcurrent protection, and reverse current relay. If this type reg is for say a 30 amp gen, but u replace reg.for a 45 amp gen, in essence, you are using a larger fuse than you should, because what happens is 45 amps will cause a heavier pull to open the contacts which reduces the field current so gen's amps won't be exceeded. so your gen will be smoking hot before its current is reduced and that burns me up.
