Sensational video Norman. You deserve a medal and an honorary PhD from an Ivy League university for your brilliant teaching style. If only others whose job it is to teach people were even half as good as you, the world would be a much smarter place. TOP MARKS MATE! WELL DONE! :-)
I agree 100% It's not just the knowledge, it's his ability to make it so easy to comprehend for me. I'm a Carpenter of over 30 years. I can build almost anything out of wood. I've stayed away from electrical my whole life. After watching this video I'm ready to go rewire my 1973 Wheel Horse. I may need to watch a section again as I'm going but it's mostly understood after first watch.
Fantastic teaching ability.
His starter rebuild was just as easy to understand.
Hands Down THE BEST explanation of wiring - and I’ve searched all over RUclips and the Internet. THANK YOU
Fantastic video! Norman explains each circuit simply and clearly so that anyone can understand them. He also illustrates each circuit well with his layouts. Excellent job!
This is THE best wiring video I have found after MANY viewings. Most have left me more confused than when I started. THANKS.
get a copy of wiring diagram off of the net for your mower study it its very simple to under stand it is common you would be supprised at the # of mowers that are wired just alike they all have a switch apto a brake pedal aseat each item i listed has wires to it for a reason u sualy the tbl is in a switch thats moves the most the wires just hang there key and pto switch are common ther two different key switches that i know i key has 3 notches the kea has two but they wire alike
Gotta give another shout out as I just rewired an old JD 112 using this video as my wiring diagram.
Like one comment says, best wiring video I've seen on the net.
Keep the good work up brother, if I was living in the US I would have definitely support your business.
I literally followed this step by step and completely rewired my 1971 MTD 990- VERY HELPFUL
Great video and to the point explanation !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No music or distractions and no excess gibberish . THANKS
That was an incredibly helpful, by its simple, easy to copy formula, video for any of us just encountering rewiring an old tractor.
Great video! Very straightforward and well explained. Being in the automotive industry for 34 years I couldn’t have explained it better. Amazing job Norm!
Thanks!
I thought the same way, myself ,a mechanic since 1986
I'm building a go cart with a lot of parts from an old lawn tractor. This is the only video that made literally any sense at all. Thanks!
I love these videos, you really simplify everything and I honestly learn a lot watching your videos. Well done!
Thank you Norman, you certainly know your way around the electrics. This has really helped me to understand the tractor circuit
Thank you SOO MUCH Norman! I know there are very few wires on my Gravely 8122, but without knowing WHERE they go is very frustrating! You are CLEAR, CONCISE and to the point! Thank again!
Really well done, Norman. You are an excellent instructor, and the videography was well done. This vid gave me exactly the information I was looking for. Thanks!
Super fabulous video! It's clear and straight to the point. Easy to follow and understand. The diagrams are helpful but the best part, I think, is simply seeing each system broken down into its components and wired correctly. I'm considering stripping out all the wiring in an older rider mower I am rebuilding and wiring it up as you show in order to completely eliminate all the safety and kill switches which annoy me to death and to have good, new wire and connections. I'll be checking out the other videos on your site and when I need parts, you will be the first place I check. Thanks for sharing this video.
You're welcome and thank you for your comment
I’m inherited grandfather’s JD 314. I’m refurbishing it. The wiring was a mess. Thanks Norman you just made my re-wiring so much easier.
Great work young man. Super easy to understand and sorted my starter problems in no time. Well done!!!!!!
Thank you for this easy to understand explanation of the flow and connections of a 12 volt system. The understanding part for me is due to your clear annunciation. Also, thank you for not using "slut words" that are found in so many of these videos. You are truly a professional.
Super informative. Thanks for the detailed walk-through of all the key systems!
Norm, Your visual of this is much more understandable to understand for those of us less experience electrical people Thank You so much for this and other videos
Very well done! Halfway through the video I realized my mistake and one adjustment later the starter worked as expected.
Very simple and cogent explanation of how a small engine electrical system works. Great job!
Nice video you have inspired me to get my 1976 Ariens GT going again!
Thanks Norm really helpful. When you break it down like that it’s really easy thanks again 👍🏼
My problems are solved as soon as I get the new key switch. Thank you so much. You know your video is the best wiring video on the tube right? It is.
This was great! Finally, after many years of being confused by the wiring - and further confused by the many complex and limited references to what these wires all do - confusing - and often incorrect - wiring diagrams and not even knowing what components are where on my 3 different Cub Cadets, now i know how to figure out ANY wiring on ANY of my small tractors. I cannot thank you enough for your clear explanations of these circuits and their components. And you know that IsaveTractors.com will be my new source of parts - and advice about keeping my 40+ year old Cub Cadets running. - the 1200, the 1450 and the 17 hp 782... Thanks! (and now I can get back to solving the wiring problems with the old 782. Gotta get back to work; the grass is growing and needs to be cut before the rains begin again....
Thnx man i appreciate you made this video....you are life saver 🤗...i couldn't find anything like this on RUclips
Really professional instruction. Hell if i had a teacher like you at school i would have gone places. you left nothing to chance.
Simply and clearly stated instruction on wiring a riding mower Very well done.
I do wish I had this when I totally tor apart my tractor. I got it back together but not nearly as quick or easy as if I knew about this video. Thank you for saving tractors!
Fantastic info, presented well. Thank you !
You’re the best Norman!!!!
Very informative! You simplified it to where a novice would be able to understand it!
Norman you just earned another subscriber here. That has got to be the best instructional video I have ever watched and I've watched many. Thank you so much for taking the time to explain everything with such clarity and detail!!!
I agree with everyone, best wiring video. I HATE wiring but I feel I can wire my tractor with confidence now. Thank you very much
Wow the best explanation for the old 60-70 tractor from RUclips...Good job Thanks
WELL DONE!!! So educational!
YES I AGREE , NORM HAS HELPED ME IMMENSELY !!! THANKS
Thanks for the update and the really good job on the showing of this electric part of the mower . really a good job.thank you so much.

Truly an artist of electrical components.. very well presented. Excellent plus
Thanks for making this easy!
Great explanation!. Very Clear. Many thanks.
Outstanding explanation!!!!One of the best videos I have ever seen, ty.
Norman, thanks for this very informative video. This is by far the best instructional video on basic wiring I have ever seen. Please keep the videos coming.
Excellent tutorial! Thanks!
Man you really know stuff and explain it so well.
thank you! I try really hard to break things down to its most simple forms.
isavetractors
Just what i needed. Great video! Thanks.
By far the best video on this subject. 👍
Why thank you kindly
This was an awesome video! I quickly learned how to wire my 10 horse briggs on my go cart. Thank you so much! Have a great day!
Keep up the great work. It helps many people like me. Many Thanks! Subscribed!
I wish you would make more videos you do a great job! You helped me rewire my old Gravely 430 I’m doing a full restoration
Awesome video, thanks! Going to try to get my 1650 massey to run.
Perfect video! Thank you!
I really enjoyed this, it was extremely well done and done in a way that allowed me to better understand how my tractor is wired thanks!
Thank you so much! I am glad it helped you!
@@Isavetractors hi can I start my mower by battery wire and starter wire but both of them out side and un cover by touch..is this dangerous pls
very simple to understand straight to the point easy to follow step-by-step i have viewed others videos and they are too complicated congratulations on this video
VERY CLEAR PRESENTATION , YOU DID THE BEST I HAVE SEEN
Such a great and detailed video! thank you!
Good video. Learned alot. Was able to fix wires on my Max 2 6 wheeler. Same set up as a lawn tractor.
this really sums it up for me thanks
I'm replacing ignition, battery, battery cables, cig lighter, headlight wiring in the morning, October 12th. This is a very comprehensive video in my opinion.
There are lots of guys out there trying to illustrate the wireing system of a lawn tractor ignition switch and it's affiliated parts
But you my friend have made mention to a great many things as I learned some interesting things from your video as you have broken stuff down it's very confusing as you said to untangle all this information color codes and all and we're they may go if unplugged some how or to add something else like a push button start like I am indeed trying to do and we're your video is putting some light on that dark path it will for sure take me a few extra hours to study the video to get it right with out question your video is the best I have come across on this topic and hearing you mentioned you published information in magazines this in my mind is worthy that your not only telling us newbies how but doing so the right way from the start not as others try to you start with it from the bottom up nicely done for sure you have my attention for future video watching I clearly see it's not wasted time your a good teacher and I am gladly giving you a thumbs up and a button smash
Norman this was a very good video keep making Videos like this
@5;55 great schematic simply put !!! Thank you Boss!! 👍
Been watching lots of videos but this one rocks. I took the time to copy down all of the audio so I can type it up for future reference. Also did some screen grabs. Best explanation I have found. Thanks!
We have a written article on this topic as well as others on our website! That'll save you some time!
isavetractors Thanks. I appreciate that. Recently got interested in repairing small engines because I have an older Zero Turn Mower with a bad engine that I would like to repair so that I can use to pull a Craftsman Lawn Broom to pick up grass so I can put on my compost pile.
Amazing lesson!!! Thanks so much😊
Beautiful simple instructions for that same person.thankyou
Very well explained. Thanks
Damn Fine job Sir! Couldn’t ask for better wiring explanation.
Thanks for your help 👍
Actually learned a lot , great video
Excellent presentation. Thanks
I think this will help me out GREATLY
Well done. The explanation applies to just about every vehicle and or stationary engine ignition system with the exception of some very modern vehicles. It does apply to Motorcycles, Dune buggies, lawn tractors, go-karts, cars, trucks, etc with both 6 and 12 volt systems.
You're a natural teacher.
ah yes, rewiring . done that many times with all my hacked up wiring on my fleet. some like my 86 gt 2 needed all new wiring, itd been all hacked and corroded, so yanked it all when i redid it. i bot a varitiy of wire, connectors, shrink tubing for just that. thanks for the info.👍
great explanation, hats of to you
Great Video Norman! Thank You! (very helpful)
Nice video. Thank you for the help.
Helped me so much
you the man.I enjoy your video...
this video has helped me figure out the wiring on my old Allis Chalmers 716 h garden tractor
This video made it very easy to rip out all the troublesome wiring and start from scratch. My old wheel horse had all kinds of old switches by passed and old connecters that were just TROUBLE. Now, very little wire, I know where everything goes, and the tractor starts and runs fine. Many Thanks!!!!!
Excellent, simple and to the point
Thank you, your video helped me out so much
