With those voltages, it sounds like the generator is working so maybe the brushes just needed to seat a bit more when you did the first test. I would keep an eye on things and do the grounding test only if it has a low voltage again. Remember to turn accessories off and have the doors closed when you do ground the field wire. Have meter connected and then only keep it grounded long enough to quickly read the meter. The excess voltage could do other damage if a bulb or some accessory is on at the time.
