The PO managed to cut many wires on this tractor. Since it is also known a an Allis Chalmers 5020, I do have the AC manual.
The PO also cut the wire that runs to the idiot light that connects to the alternator.
My questions are this:
1) The manual shows a resistor and a diode in the wiring. What is the resistor's value?
2) Does the Hitachi alternator require the idiot light as an "exciter" to make the alternator begin to charge?
Thanks!

UPDATE: ALL FIXED
I found a local supplier and was able to get a Mitsubishi exact fit alternator.
It does have to have a functioning idiot light to "turn on" the alternator.
Now charging at 14.2 volts. ....
