Charging system issue

<< < (2/3) > >>

Ceeby-jeebies:
Have checked earth connections, alternator connections, fuse box, bullets etc and all seem good. Problem persists sadly.

Bryanj:
Have you checked the stator coil resistances between yellow wires, i have had one that had something dropped on it and cut a winding

Cappodimonte:
Aside from checking and cleaning the bullet connectors check the wire soldered to them, if it has a green tinge suspect it to be causing your problem as it will have high resistance. All the earth points need checking, including the one under the petrol tank which is usually overlooked as it is unseen for the most part

Ceeby-jeebies:
Thanks for all the suggestions. Tried everything and cleaned everything and put it all back together again, and now it’s charging better if not as per the manual, ie 12.5-12.6V at tickover and 13.3V-13.5V at 2000-4000 revs. Any more revs and the multimeter seemed to go erratic, flickering on and off with no clear reading!
