    ballast resistor plugs

    Does anyone know where I can get the plugs for a dual ballast resistor? My originals are crumbling and my searches on the net are not turning anything up, I'm not sure what they are called to even do a good enough search, I know they make them for the new harnesses you can buy but I don't want...

    charging problem

    ok, thanks, I was going to put the headlights on relays. I'll add another for the regulator untill I can get a new wiring harness.

    charging problem

    I have checked other ballast resistors with this meter and got readings on them, i'll change the battery in my meter and test again. I did remove the wires when I tested the ballast. To check voltage drop turn the key to run but with engine not running Put one probe directly onto...

    charging problem

    ok, sorry about misunderstanding what you wrote. here is the following checks i did this morning. batt voltage at rest was 12.47 volts batt voltage after running and warmed up was 14.8 to 14.9 v neg post to vr ear was 0.09 v with no load. neg post to vr ear was 0.31 v with headlights on...

    charging problem

    The ohms reading was on the ground circuit you mentioned earlier.

    charging problem

    Ok, checked the reading between neg batt post and vr, 0.00 ohms when off, between 7 and 8 ohms running, not sure if i did that right. where voltage reg gets power at ballast i had 12 volt and battery had 12.6 volts, so that's my problem, I think I'll just rewire the whole thing and start fresh...

    charging problem

    Now check the ground circuit. Make this test with engine running fast, first with all accessories off, and agin when on. Stab one probe onto the battery NEG post, the other onto the ground mounting flange of the regulator. Same a s above, you are wanting to see a...

    charging problem

    Well it might be possible, the only difference I noted between the regulators was the old one made all my lights flicker at idle, with the new one they don't, but they both charged the same. Could the alternator be bad ?

    charging problem

    Hi guys, I have a problem with my charging system, I recently did the amp meter bypass on it and now I'm getting 15 volts while it's running. I've already read some threads on here with similar problem but I've gotten to a point of scratching my head. I have excellent grounding with 0.00 ohms...
