ChittI is close to being used...when we are allowed,BUT
The dynamo is putting out lots of volts. New belt !
The ammeter used to show a charge with the engine running...and the new wIring in place..but the warning light is now lit all the time. (It is a12 v bulb as I didn't have a 6v one.) It did go out before ....And now it doesn't!
I have the dash out and all the wires are in the right place,
The bulb holder has 6v at the base contact, but the earth ( outside threaded part ) seems a bit dodgy and I think I can get it to show 6v! I had tried to put an earth wire to that outside, but it was a bit Heath Robinson, so I have discarded it.
Could this cause the regulator to play up? Or what am I missing
