    8N Bendix gear exploded

    Yes it is a conversion. I kind of thought that might be a contributor. I found a Bendix about 40 miles away and once the roads open up I will go get it. Currently at 3 plus foot of snow and still coming down heavy. Thanks guys!!!

    8N Bendix gear exploded

    So major snow storm ( 30 miles south east of Buffalo) and went to start the 8N and got about a half a rotation ans heard a hard clunk then nothing. Pulled the starter and heard "tink tink tink" as I was wiggling it out of place. I found 1 piece of the Bendix gear but the rest are in the bottom...

    4630 charging issue

    I really doubt it is going to be an issue. I restore old Goldwings and 14.5 is a dream for most of them. It was a rainy and cool morning so the temp was only about 70. I will check it again on a hot day when I come back down in a few weeks. Anything has to be better than only charging it...

    4630 charging issue

    ALL FIXED!! Wired in the 220 ohm resistor to the thermo sensor plug on the alternator and now have a lovely 14.5 at idle. Ran it up to about 1500 rpm and it surged for a second then settled back at 14.5 Very happy [size=18:36d8afaf81]THANK YOU ALL!!!! Would never have figured this...

    4630 charging issue

    Fixed the rats nest of wiring and now I have a charge light. So that is good. The Resistor will be delivered tomorrow hopefully and I can work on that next.

    4630 charging issue

    Okay. I just pulled the instrument cluster and there is a brown and yellow chase wire going to a light bulb but the green wire that I presume provides the power to it is mouse eaten through. I checked all the wires in the instrument panel and nothing has any power. So that is next. When...

    4630 charging issue

    Not sure I got this right, should the Alt terminal have the 12 volts or the wire??

    4630 charging issue

    Afraid you were going to say that :D :D Chasing wires on this thing is near to impossible with the front bucket arms in the way To gain access to the bulb I can just unscrew the 4 Phillips of the indicator cluster? Pretty sure the only light I have ever seen work is for the glow plugs...

    4630 charging issue

    The charge warning light has never worked. At least since he bought this about 10 years ago. I understand that it is not a proper fix but if I bypass the temp sensor with a 205 ohm resistor will that work long term? Also anyone have any idea how much wattage the resistor needs to be rated for?

    4630 charging issue

    I could see the wires for the temp sensor run in a conduit under the battery tray back toward the drivers seat. The lone loose red wire was at the front of the battery and was too short to connect to anything I could see. It did have a terminal on it but nowhere I could see to connect. This...

    4630 charging issue

    Pretty sure that is what I am going to end up doing. Just need to source the parts.

    4630 charging issue

    Two brown wires, one with green tracer and the other with yellow. Neither read any power with key on or off or tractor running. Reads batter power at the big wire under the boot at about the 2 o'clock position.

    4630 charging issue

    Awesome. I will get to those in a few minutes. I can not get any power reading from the temp sensor wire on the alt. Problem is with the bucket lift arms in the way I can not slide the battery tray out far enough to access the sensor. will try and post a pic of the alt from my phone if I can

    4630 charging issue

    Okay found a wiring diagram from a previous question I posted here. Looks like the Temp sensor is a 2 wire system so not the red wire I see loose near the battery. Will investigate that further, and check out the thermo sensor.

    4630 charging issue

    From the Data Plate the Tractor Number is BD13821 Model is DY414C I do not see a year manufactured but I think 93 This thing has a bucket on the front so access is very limited. There is a red wire toward the inside edge of the battery with a connector on the end that is not hooked to...
