Naa: Burned up 12v coil? How to test

Hello, I'm no electrician, which is probably why I shouldn't of wired up some headlights. I have a 53 naa/jubilee with a 12v system. I had some old d/c headlights in the garage. I simply mounted them up and wired the red wires from the headlights to a red alligator clip, and the black wires (assuming it was the ground) to a black alligator clip. So I simply hooked the clips up to the battery and they worked well. Last night I started up the tractor and hooked up my lights. I made it maybe 5 minutes before it completely died on me. No spark. Did I totally wire up the lights wrong and burn up the coil? Is there an easy way I could test it? any help is appreciated. Thanks
