Howard and Home Away; Thanks for the information. I've copied it out to another page where I can print it and take it out to my car for reference. I'll let you know what I find out.
Thanks again for your help.

Hello, again. It finally warmed up enough here for me to be able to get back on my '37 120. I have located the battery draw, but I am not getting any measurement on my ammeter while the engine is running. After looking at the voltage regulator while running, I do not see the solenoid closing to allow current to flow back to the battery. I would like to test the relay in the regulator to see if voltage from the generator would close it but from what I understand I am not to come directly off of the battery due to the high amperage which would burn out the regulator. I can some up with some 6V ideas, but wondered if any of you have done this before and if so, what was your solution? I was thinking of getting a regular 9V battery which does not have that much amperage to see if that would close the relay. If it does, then I'll take the generator into the shop to have them check it out.
Thanks for your help as usual.

Thanks. Yes, I did perform the ohmmeter test according to your instructions and found that the FLD terminal is the one located on the same side as the BAT terminal. I'll hook everything back up and run a test.
I do appreciate the instruction and immense help.
Thanks, again.

Hi, but no, I could not find anything stamped on the terminals telling me which is which. I'l try the ohmmeter process and see if I can determine which one goes where. The bat terminal is self evident to me now. It's just the other two I need to determine.
Thanks.

I have another question for you. Which line is supposed to open the current relay, the one labeled Gen or the one labeled Fld?? If I knew that, I might have this solved for I suspect I had them switched because my ammeter still did not show any charging current to the battery.
Thanks.

Here are two pictures, one of the bottom and one of the top again but at an angle showing the relays. The cut out relay is at the bottom of the second picture.
Again, thanks.

Hello, again. I went back out and looked at my voltage regulator and could not see any markings as to what went where. I'm attaching a picture of it with the cover off. The cut out relay is at the bottom and I do know where that goes. My only question now is which terminal attaches to the fld. Once I know that, I have the other.
If you cannot read my attached picture, please let me know.
Again, thanks for your help.

Thanks. I didn't see any labeling right off but will take a much closer look. I appreciate the information. Learning something new each day!!

Thanks to all. I think I've found my issue and that was because I did not know how to install the regulator correctly. I finally took the cover off and located the cut out relay that is supposed to attach to the line going to the battery and now have it correct.
The regulator that I was sent was not a VRD4005A which is specified in the parts manual but a VRR4005A, which according to the people with whom I work tells me it is compatible. It only has three poles and the ground attaches to the mounting bracket. Does anyone have the correct wiring setup for a VRR4005A? Of the other two poles, which one is from the generator (labeled Armature)? I just want to be sure I have the other two attached correctly.
Thanks again.

Thanks, I shall do just that.
