I'm Colin from Northeast PA and my father and I have a Massey 231. Its a real sharp tractor! We were troubleshooting a no-start problem and discovered a bad positive lead.. no problem except that we had taken all the wires off the solenoid and can't remember how they go back on!! We need to know which wires go on the top and bottom threaded terminals of the starter solenoid.
On ours, the yellow comes out of the solenoid from its own connection (I think this is the ignition switch wire).
The heavy black cable is the positive lead from the battery.
I think the red wire goes to the alternator.
And there is a brown wire that I think also goes up to the 'dash'.

Which wires are on the top connection, and which are on the bottom (how many and colors)? We really appreciate anything someone can tell us. Thanks!

Colin and Andy
