Hello ,I meant repolarize the generator ,thank you ! how does one repolarize a generator? The mechanic I had before I movedto california wouldnt look inside a generator ,He would ask me to get another rebuilt ,I started getting the rebuilts and instaling them myself as its not too tougha job ,but with some tricks ! like the re polarization issue and the belt issue and the voltage regulator issue
,When I moved out west the generator had been replaced yet again , and started doing funny things i.e. light for the battery going on at at speed or sometimes when parked ,this is when I started seeking advice on your excellent site.I found an old car specializing fellow who would do the diagnostics on the car ,where most guys wont .He said its an internal problem with the generator that was spoted on the bench at a good generator shop that will mess with a 6v positive ground piece of equipment .I ve learned a lot from the posts
is there a piece that fits between the rear bumper and the supports? or behind the supports ? Ive removed the bumper for a rechrome and one spot had a bumper bolt ,castle nut and then a flat piece of metal that conformed to the bumper I wonder if I was supposed to have one on all six attachment spots ,its A 52
