Wiring issues 2n

[Jvan]

Looking for suggestions on the wiring of my 2n. Recently I have wired up my 2n with the diagram shown below. The problem I’ve been having is when I connect the battery the generator starts to spin which shows amperage draw on the ampmeter. I’ve replaced the start switch, resistor, and cutout. Maybe the diagram is wrong, maybe I should be replacing a certain part. Just wanting to know where to start.
Thanks for any information

So your genny is "motoring" and I suspect you have a genny problem.
Was it working fine before?
Or is the genny problem the cause of your wiring harness getting replaced?

I am in the process of restoring this tractor and I bought it not running so I do not know which it would be.

Sounds like the cut out relay is stuck.

Well that’s what I was thinking too however I replaced the old one and still have the same problem so I do not believe it is that.

Lift all the wires off the A terminal hook the 2 "12 Y" wires back down and hook up the battery again, if the Gen spins problem is the cut out relay as no other source to supply voltage to the gen.

Is it possible the cutout is connected backwards? Have a look at this thread:

1939 - 9n cutout wiring

I have looked at a wiring diagram by JMOR, for the 9n. The wiring diagram shows the wire connecting to the top of the cutout, to be from the battery. I have a cutout that I removed from a 2n. It has Ford stamped on it, and the B is on the lower front of the cover, not the top. It seems that it...

I would be very surprised if it was not the cut out.
