Biker,

Apparently the internet is hosed. I can not load a JPG file for you.

Can you post a photo of the wire in question?

Do you have the service manual for your tractor?

If no, PM me, I can send it to you.

There is unshielded an there is uninsulated or bare wire. Shielding is usually used to reduce RF interference. Insulation protects the conductor from grounding out. A bare wire or braid is usually a ground wire.
