John Deere hd45 48" walk behind mower---- Replacement engine has 1 wire coming from Stator........the original engine had 2 wires which plugged into the factory externally mounted regulator which then supplied the main chassis wiring harness which energized the electric PTO clutch.....Where can I possibly find a diagram that would show me how to correctly wire this so that I can retain all of the safety switch functions???? I am certain someone has done this already......I can use a little help. Thanks for any help....

You will likely need to upgrade and get a bigger stator, and possibly a flywheel with bigger magnets, but we will need your engine's model numbers.
Thanks for all the replies...I cannot seem to post a comment without using the "quote" button.....Well anyways the old engine was a "K" series labeled John Deere ...14hp....was wondering about the compatibility of the old flywheel and stator...I dismissed it with haste be cause of this engine being a Twin.....I looked at the Diagrams that were in the earlier responses and I guess what I need is a diagram for the voltage regulator that is on the chassis of the mower(hd45) i am not sure if this stator will have enough output for the pto on this mower ....maybe it only has enough output for charging a battery???? Maybe i should order a different flywheel/stator for this engine??? It seems like the best option.Thanks "Fish" and "Engine Man"
Ordered a new stator with 2 wires..... installed it today runs perfect...I don't think i would have ever gotten the single wire stator to work correctly because the amp draw on my pto would have required more amperage than the single wire stator would have ever out out.....I think it was only capable of low amperage output to charge a battery.:thumbsup:

Yes. most brands use the same flywheels and stators for most of their current engines, the same flywheel with a different stator can produce more electricity, you just need to know what you have.
