Blown fuses

<< < (11/12) > >>

Lobo:
...I’d reckon job done; and indeed it seems the Regulator has gone bad describing the 3 checks you did.

The last bit of your puzzle will be confirmation with a 15A fuse in place... but Regulator disconnected of course.

Seems an odd sort of failure... has the Regulator Black contact somehow bent / contacted the body?

Regardless, hopefully well done.

Bryanj:
The proper 400 reg has contacts that poinr sideways whilst the other fours point downwards perhaps the wrong one fitted

Oggers:
Simon/Bryan

Firstly many thanks to you both. Would not have found it without you.

Yes - for sure I will reconnect everything except the regulator, insert fuse, turn the key and see what happens. It had better not blow!

I'll pull the regulator off to see if I can find anything obvious, but yes, a little odd for sure. I never touched it! Some elderly capacitors in there, so I guess they have a shelf life.....

Pins point outwards by the by

May invest in the reg/rec combo as a fix....

Bryanj:
No capacitors, all coils n points.

Bryanj:
Have you stopped the blowing fuses?
