Thanks for all the helpful information:) After trying the connections and the corrosion treatments. I rechecked the wire harness for shorts. And finally I took NE IA Dave's advice and justed smack the voltage regulator with a cresent wrench. Works Like NEW !!!!! for what its worth: Further investigation showed that the brushes were not seating on the generator properly and by smaking the voltage reg on top of the generator it let the brushes make better contact with the armature. Did a little P.M. and corrision control and Iam back to haying again.

Thank you all for the information and suggestions you saved me a lot of time and money!!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS JW, Once a VR"s contacts get burned or carboned up n stick occasionally to where a good SMACK can release them, unfortunately grrrrr rrrrr it may not be too long before it needs replaced cuz they could stick more permanently. It can help to non abrasively clean/buff/polish them but use caution in filing etc too much cuz once that shiny silver coating is gone they dont last long. If cleaned (or maybe they just needed exercised from sitting) they may never stick again, hopefully.

On the genny brushes, stuck or gummed up or corroded brush hold down spring assemblys is a major cause of non charging. They need to be cleaned and then light lube the spring hold down assembly and exercised (flipped held open n then released closed) now n then plus keep the film n oil n carbon off the commutator is alllll l good preventitive maintenance.

best wishes

John T
