Question
Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Scotts Tractor Model S2046 Engine Replacement, orange wire, liability safety
Briggs Motor
Good Day,
I own a Scotts Model S2046 Tractor. Originally equipped with a 20HP Intek V-Twin and Dual Circuit Alternator with red and black leads coming from the stator direct to a red/yellow connector on the tractor wiring harness, I replaced the engine with a Vanguard V-Twin with the Power Link Option (Model35777A ~ TYPE 0113-E1 ~ CODE 02042511) and cannot find any wiring diagrams pertaining to the regulator output. It has a 3 wire output plug with orange brown and red leads. I get no output from any lead at any engine speed unless I put 12 volts to the orange wire, then I get 4.5v from the brown and 35v from the red. All I want is to have it charge the battery on the tractor. I don't care about lights. I can start, run and shut down just fine. I have attached a picture of the replacement engine.
regulator part number is 809176, stator part number 809175. Both are 20A output. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I have looked through my manual, and it looks like the alt, regulator
and wiring is peculiar to the Power link engine, and fitting onto another tractor is not an easy task, as the powerlink ac power will not
function unless the tractor is in park, and they are not giving much info on how to bypass or ignore it, for liability/safety reasons.

The alt leads should put out over 100 volts ac on this system, and on the regular engines only @ 28 volts or so, and the transforming down of the voltage seems to be done in the inverter part, but I am not sure, as they just tell how what leads to test and their values.

Here is a pic of my book, hope this helps, but I would not recommend that you mess with this in any way for your safety.
