Regulator and Generator

Hi Richard, just a thought but why not take the opportunity to convert to a 12v alternator.

Alternator YUK! The rebulid and adjustment procedure is in the manual. I thik Steve Canadian Schottish used an ex Ford one in his .

Well I have got it sorted out. This problem was on a Dodge WC52 on the bottom right corner as you look at the regulator mounted to the bulkhead, there was a noise suppression unit bolted to the case of the regulator which was earthed and connected to the field connection on the regulator and also to the field winding on the generator??

Well tested this out and found it to be shorted out, anyway after removing this and connecting the rest of the wiring up as it should be all was well. so watch out for those little buggers which give no sign of a problem to look at but don't actually do what they should !!!!!!!!!
