satoh bull electrical problem

[goose33]

Hi everyone. I am new to the group. I have a satoh bull 6300. It has been a great little tractor. I went to use it the other day and I had no power to the dash. I thought I had a dead battery. I charged the battery and still nothing. I have power to the starter, alternater, and the switch. I have checked the fuses and wiring. Everything is ok. I did find that the voltage regulator had a broken wire but I repaired it. Not sure where to go from here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

It could still be in the regulator or ignition switch.

Thank you.. I am going to see if I can find a regulator and new ignition.

To eliminate switch problems squirt some WD40 into the key slot and wiggle the key a bit.
That action will dissolve hardened lubricants and renew the contacts.

You might check all the electrical plugs and connections. Mine had a bunch of connectors that were brittle and literally crumbling. This could lead to corrosion on the connector pins.
