Ok thank you for that explanation…the generator was refurbished but I have no idea what was done with it as it came from eBay…the original one was never with car as it had alternator…iI examined the regulator contacts closer last night and the field contacts look much different than arm contacts below it and appear dark…if the regulator is toast , can I still test the generator by grounding the FLD terminal at the regulator or is there a way to test the generator at the generator by another method.. i appreciate the time taken to explain the mechanics…I think I have a pretty good grasp on how it all works now
