I inherited this C20. Runs & drives. Battery does charge while motor is running. However after looking around and peeking through the electrical and the cluster I’ve noticed the ammeter seems to be wired directly off its terminal posts instead of the printed circuit board connections. One side is ran directly to the battery and the other wired to the brown wire of the alternator. Based off research this seems like something they would do to add an ammeter on an old tractor. I’m curious if this is safe and a proper way to use the ammeter. Thanks
