My amp meter on my 185 is not moving or changing position when the tractor starts, lights are turned on. It just sets at the "0" mark.

The battery test 12.4 volts after setting for days, and after running, the batteries test 14.5 volts.

I am assuming I just need a new amp gauge, or is there something else I need to look at.

Thanks for the Help. Dale

If the gauge is properly wired, its bad. Moisture has rusted the pivots.
