Charging problem

<< < (2/2)

Paull:
Hi Bryanj,
Thanks, I never thought of testing the metre at source, I have a digital self-ranging metre under

Paull:
Hi Chaps,
Well I have prodded, poked, polished and tested, no improvement whatsoever.
So I have bit the bullet and got myself an RR24 reg/rect.
I was just wondering if it makes any difference what phase wire (Yellows) goes from the alternator to the reg/rect IE yellow one to yellow one or can I just plug any of the yellows together.
I hope this make sense
Paul ::)   

hairygit:
any yellow to any yellow, thats the beauty of 3phase wiring!

Paull:
Thanks for that.
Paul

Paull:
Hi All,
Success, got the bugger charging, 14.5v at 4000rpm.
It said on the new (RR24) reg/rect instructions that the green (earth) to the old reg has no connection.
This is infact not true, you have to connect it to a frame ground or the centre coil in the alternator won't work.
(New shiny thing will not work,bugger, ask me how I know) ;D
Thanks for all the help, we are getting there.
