Hi folks, I have been playing with my Husky LTH130 Ride On and have rewired it very, simply as a Mud Mower. No Safety Switches, No Deck, No Electric Clutch & No Headlights.

It has a 13hp Briggs Engine and I use a Push Button to Start it and a Kill Switch to Stop it.

I'm trying to work out where to connect to red & black wires form the Alternator so it will charge the battery while it's running.

A 12 volt auto elec, told me after looking at the Husqvarna LTH130 Factory wiring diagram that the Red wire (with the diode) connects to the battery side of the Solenoid and the Black with to earth. But all that did was make the alternator smoke.

So I have fitted a new one and don't want to burn that one out.

Hence me seeking help from those in the know...

I have (hopefully) attached a simple wiring diagram that works but with the battery charging option.
