442 PK wiring
I'm sure this question has been asked 100 times. I tried searching past posts, but didn't get far. I have several 'official' wiring diagrams but I have a problem with following wires when they run several inside a tube and are numbered. I need a hand drawn diagram with colors listed, of the switch and regulator. Anyone ever post such a thing ?? I cannot see where the 12v comes from, to get to the switch. MY solenoid not energizing by key. And I have temporarily put a ground jumper on it. ( neutral grounding is defective) Thank you.

Re: 442 PK wiring
I’m sorry I don’t have a diagram to share, but was thinking, would a continuity light help trace the wiring?

Re: 442 PK wiring
I don't know how much you could trust a wiring diagram with coloured wires. The wires in your tractor might have been changed. Like Jeff said, it wouldn't be that hard to figure out where each wire goes with a continuity meter.

Re: 442 PK wiring
Our 4018 started blowing the 30 amp fuse last night. This started me thinking about how to tackle your problem and maybe yours. Instead of a wiring diagram like our manuals have, a ladder diagram might be easier for a novice to follow. @ckainMich What is the serial number on your tractor?

Re: 442 PK wiring
Good point. With the right diagram we can figure out a way to chase each wire for its purpose.

Re: 442 PK wiring
I took a look at the 442 manual. It has been 20 years since doing ladders. Ladder diagrams are a weekly encouter in my line of work.. This morning memories of an old software program came back. A copy of it should still be around that would simplify and make the ladder diagram easier to layout.

Re: 442 PK wiring
I had to look up the term ladder diagram, as I didn't know exactly what it was. Thanks for overloading my brain @Spike188 !

Re: 442 PK wiring
Trying to help. Look at this diagram, do to have these components? I'll try to find a better one.
