JD 70 Wiring Diagram Needed

[Randy K Crump]

I have a 1954 JD Model 70. I need to know the proper wiring from the amp gauge to the ignition, distributor, coil and generator. Does anyone have a wiring diagram for the dash that they could share with me? Thank You!

James,

Your instructions are great! I have added this to my 70 gas folder for future reference, never know when it might be needed. Thanks for all your contributions of real knowledge.

Thanks.

Information was gathered from three of my Model 70 "[i:654c4848f0]future reference[/i:654c4848f0]" folders:

"15" = 1953 Gas
"1011" = 1953 Gas
"Big John" = 1955 Diesel (photo of the generator)
