As part of my efforts to get a working dynamo I've been poring over the electrics today and I've discovered an interesting thing - as soon as I turn the ignition switch on the cutout closes and it stays stuck closed after the ignition is off unless I flick it open or disconnect the battery. This happens even without the dynamo attached (I was doing diagnostics).
Presumably this explains why the dynamo is in such a mess, it must have had a few years of the battery burning out the coils I guess?
I can't for the life of me work out what's happening. I'm trying to work out if it's too high a current draw on ignition or mis-wired at the cutout.
