Its me again, I am the guy who installed a 12 volt generator and new regulator. I did the polarize thing, started the tractor.
Problem--Amp meter doesn't show anything. Needle won't even move when I turn on the switch. This amp meter worked fine with the 6 volt system. Is there something that I have overlooked? Is there such a thing as a 6v and 12v amp meter? I didn't think so, but I am not very smart.
