The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Rebuilt Generator installed: Higher the RPM the more discharge

Theo,
Is the ammeter hooked up correctly or could the wires gotten reversed? Did you polarize the generator after installing it? Have you had your battery checked to make sure it is good? Have you checked the generator out put at the cut out with a volt or ohm meter to make sure it is putting out voltage? Things to check.
Good Luck,
Jon
