Returning home from a car club meeting last night the ignition light came
on.
There was a definite electrical burning smell from under the bonnet, and the
dynamo/generator felt very hot. There had been a slight squeeling sound
which I thought was the fan belt but it could be a bearing in the generator.
Anyway the reason for this e-mail is ..... before I start disassembling the
generator or voltage regulator is there anything I should be checking or
testing. I am sure it is the generator bearing and / or brushes but the
voltage regulator has adjustment and maintenance according to the Haynes
manual.
Help is needed to get the midget back on the road for the weekend fall
colours run
Thanks,
Dave
