Default Ammeter showing - (Need some advice)

I made a post a few days ago with no replies, here we go again. I short circuited my VR on accident, and it fried something in the ignition system and didn’t click or turn over. I refurbished the harness that had many poorly executed patch jobs, I replaced the PTO safety switch, solenoid, ammeter (was corroded inside) with parts in storage and bypassed the NSS. The brushes were worn in the starter so I swapped another starter that’s never been used on there. After all that, it cranked and ran fine. I’m almost positive it is wired correctly. Polarized the regulator, no charge. I did the S/G test to the field terminal, and it started charging so the regulator is bad of course. When I let go of the field terminal to the hot side of the battery, the ammeter jumped to the D (negative) side and would return to neutral when given throttle.

When i went to cut it off, the starter continued to turn and it would only stop turning after removing the BAT terminal wire off the regulator. After a couple minutes, hooked the wire back on, didn’t turn on its own, and turned the key and ran again with no charge. The starter ONLY runs constantly when it is jumped from the field terminal to the hot side of the battery, and I believe that one time when i put my hand on the regulator it felt like it was clicking inside. This one has me really lost, and I’m hesitant to install a new regulator just for it to fry itself due to another issue in the charging system. I need some educated opinions and i’m sortof desperate since this is my 2nd post on the matter.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
