I hope I'm doing this right! This is my first time on a forum. Please bear with me! Someone just gave me a DYT 4000 mower because it wouldnt charge the battery enough to keep the electric PTO engaged so since I'm not a mechanic I went out and bought a new stator simply because I couldn't think of anything else to do! So, here is my problem! The new stator has 2 yellow wires where the old one had a black and red. After much research into Briggs and Stratton charging systems (and trying to figure out why there wasn't a voltage regulator) I looked at the old stator and discovered the diode! Now, both wires are putting out 14 volts so I ordered a voltage reg that had a plug for the 2 yellow wires and the red one to go to the battery. That should be plenty to keep the PTO engaged right? If so, where do I run the red wire to? A terminal on the ignition switch? Direct to the battery? The existing wiring had been altered and damaged. I sure would appreciate any help Y'all can give me!!! Thank you!!
