Massey ferguson tractor ignition switch wiring diagram

  Aug 2, 2015 / 1010 Massey Ferguson Diesel - need wiring diagram for ignition switch

#1  

    I bought a 1010 Massey Ferguson Diesel from someone who had cut the wires to the ignition switch . I'm looking for a wiring diagram for the switch on the internet but haven't found one yet. I see a lot of JD wiring diagrams but not a 1010 MF diesel. if anyone has one they can send me that would be great. If not does anyone know if a different tractor has comparable ignition switch wiring that I could search for and use? Suggestions welcome. Thanks

      I have a shop manual that covers the 1010,1020,1030, and 1040. It has wiring diagrams. problem is that our local school ag shop teacher took the manual yesterday to look it over to repaint my 1040 and use it for a shop project this winter. If you cant find help elsewhere, let me know and I'll try to get it back and post the diagram

          Sorry to say I had a 1010 and just recently sold it along with all service and owners manuals. That thing served me for 18 years very monumental. I just needed to move on to a newer bigger tractor. Isn't that we all do eventually? good luck on your search. You might have some luck with a Massey dealers computer system. They could copy and send you one in an email attachment. Try contacting one somewhere close to you.

            Did you ever get your shop manual back? I too need a wiring diagram for a 1010. Is there some type of fuse or fuse link between the starter and the ignition switch? I have no power to the switch. Any help will be greatly appreciated. P.s. I do have power to the power terminal on the starter. Thanks

              No i do not have my manual back yet. Both the manual and 1040 tractor are at our local High School and last I heard the shop teacher had all the sheetmetal off and was prepeing for paint. hope they do a good job of restoration.

                The attached wiring diagram for the MF 1010 may be helpful - better late than never!

                Hello, my answer below is in response to a question posed by a reader to the 'Ask the Experts' pages in the UK 'Classic Tractor' magazine. Hope it helps.

                A/ There is very little difference between the original and present replacement switches. The original 135 switch had a �Heat-start�, �Heat�, �Off�, and �Start� positions. Replacement switches have �Off�, �Ignition�, �Heat�, and Start positions.

                The wiring colours and original terminal numbers are;
                Brown, bringing the 12V supply from the ammeter to terminal 1 of the switch.
                Brown/green, terminal 2 going to the engine heater thermostart.
                White/blue, terminal 3 going from the switch to the safety start switch and then changing to white/red to the starter solenoid.

                The new switch will need to be connected as follows;
                Brown - supply from the ammeter to terminal 1.
                A supply to an amber beacon might be connected to terminal 2 for example
                Brown/green to the thermostart from terminal 3
                White/blue to the safety start switch from terminal 4

                Low voltage electrical wiring is identified by a) the number of strands, b) the diameter of the strands and c) the cross-sectional area in square millimeters of the cable.
                For example, a cable � 14/0.30 1 mm� would be comprised of 14 strands of wire each one having a diameter of 0.30mm with a total a cross-sectional area of 1mm� and would be suitable for side and headlamps. An alternative to this standard is AWG � American Wire Gauge.

                Cable sizes for the above job should be;
                Supply, brown 28/0.30 2mm� or 44/0.30mm 3mm�.
                Thermostart, brown/green 28/0.30 2m�.
                Safety start switch, white/blue 28/0.30 2mm.


                Disconnect the battery. If you are replacing sections of the wiring identical colour coded wire should be used. Most colour and correct size wiring is available by the metre from specialist vehicle electrical component suppliers. Any corrosion on the old wires should be cleaned and new wires should be soldered in place. Connections should then be insulated preferably with heat-shrink tubing and the new section bound in tape or split plastic tube. New switches will normally require a smaller mounting hole than the original. A suitable packing washer can be used and the nut tightened or a coach washer filed to accept the new switch with its locating �flat� can be riveted in place. If you are unsure of the wiring layout the probes of a voltmeter set to �continuity� can be used to check for current flow in selected key positions.
