7 Electrical System Service
General Information
7 - 2
GENERAL INFORMATION
The electrical system is a 12-volt, negative ground type.
Power for the lights and all electrical accessories is sup-
plied by a lead/acid-type battery which is charged by the
alternator.
This section covers the location, replacement, trou-
bleshooting, and testing procedures for the various elec-
trical components that are not associated with the
engine. Information on the engine, alternator, ignition
system, and starter can be found in the engine manufac-
turer’s instructions.
It should be noted that when portions of the electrical
system are serviced, the negative battery cable should
be disconnected from the battery to prevent electrical
shorts and/or fires.

Introduction
Before tackling any troublesome electrical circuit, first
study the appropriate wiring diagrams to get a complete
understanding of what makes up that individual circuit.
Malfunctions can often be narrowed down by noting if
other components, related to the circuit, are operating
WARNING
Before beginning any service work, turn the PTO
off, set the parking brake, turn the ignition switch
off, remove the key, disconnect the spark plug
wire, and disconnect the negative battery cable.
properly. If several components malfunction at the same
time, chances are the problem is in the fuse/breaker,
common splice, or ground connection that is common to
all the malfunctioning components.
Electrical problems usually stem from simple causes,
such as loose or corroded connections, a blown fuse, a
tripped circuit breaker, or a bad relay. Visually inspect
the condition of all fuses, wires, and connections in a
suspected problem circuit before troubleshooting it.
Note: If testing instruments are going to be utilized, study
the diagrams ahead of time to plan where the necessary
connections will be made in order to accurately pinpoint
the trouble spot.
Before attempting to locate a problem with test instru-
ments, use the wiring diagram(s) to decide where to
make the connections.
TYPICAL TOOLS NEEDED
• VOM (volt-ohm meter, multi-meter, or equivalent).
• Test Light (circuit tester or continuity tester).
• Jumper wires with alligator clips at both ends.
• Power Supply (variable or 12VDC) or 12VDC Battery.
• Hydrometer.
• Wire Brush or Battery Terminal Brush.
• Clean Pencil Eraser.
• Standard Wrench Set.
• Standard Socket Set.
• Screwdriver Set.
System Description
All Legacy tractor models have five basic electrical cir-
cuits, with exception of the diesel model which has six
circuits, that represent the different electrical functions of
the tractor’s electrical system. Each function corre-
sponds to the three positions of the ignition switch:
“START,” “ON,” and “OFF.”
• START sends battery power to two sub-circuits:
1) Sends power to the safety switches (PTO, foot
pedal, and seat switches). If all safety switches are
closed, the solenoid is activated sending power to the
starter.
2) Sends power to the fuel solenoid, PTO clutch circuit,
etc.
• RUN sends battery power to two sub-circuits:
1) Connects the alternator to the battery through the
ignition switch. The alternator coil feeds power back
into the battery for recharging.
2) Sends power to the fuel solenoid and PTO clutch
switch.
