[Healeys] Generator?

My BT7 generator seems dead. There's no output voltage at point D on the 
generator at speed.

There's good -12V at regulator terminals A and A1.  Might the series 
coil and normally-open points on the regulator be open?

The engine lamp lights up, and starts to dim at around 3000 RPM. The 
regulator has only 400 miles on it since replacement. My ammeter shows 
zero amperes, although it will show a discharge if I turn on the lights.

Any thoughts before I pull the dynamo and check the brushes and commutator?
