Default Re: Charging to much

If the ammeter was hot, then it might be that the connection to the ammeter is getting hot due to one of the crimp-on connectors going bad and inserting some resistance. The generator uses the current coming back from the battery to determine how much to put out. If there is resistance in the loop somewhere the generator will just keep on chugging away. It's worth a shot to check that. Such was the case with my car when I first got it.
