5587 generator issue

Posted by custo eight On 2023/6/18 10:51:51

A prior "restoration /preservation had converted the 6 volt system to 12 volts. I beleive the car sat for around 12 years with no significant driving other than to start and run briefly. Still working thru some glitches in electrical...fuel gauge, radio etc but most of the electrical systems are working fine. After driving several trips of 30-50 miles round trip, I realized the generator is not charging the battery. I believe I saw a reference to the conversion issues that might arise but can't find that thread. Any suggestions as to where to start trouble shooting the wiring from generator?
