Hi all, Yesterday the 2 external voltage regulators arrived and I installed the first one in my 90 and it worked great. My digital charger/tester went from 0% on the alternator test to 103% when the regulator was maxed out. I then backed it off to 100% or about 14.2V. Then I did the same for my 84. Fired up the engine, turned on the headlights and !!!!!!!!???????????????RPS#$^%#^%^%@#! The alt. output was 0 and the voltage was 12.5 and dropping! Put the old regular in and same thing. Checked the connections, brushes, contacts and tried again. Same thing! No output. Now, before I go and spring for a rebuilt alt., I thought I should write you guys for any suggestions. Thanks in advance for your help. Keith Ovregaard 84 Westy "Brownie" Solar Charged Camper 90 Westy Syncro (No name yet for the pastel white box)
