Lots of threads about charging on here, but basically power is supplied to the alternator rotor via a voltage regulator. This excites the rotor so that 3 phase power is produced by the alternator stator coils, and turned into DC by the rectifier. Normal voltage with engine off should be about 12.5v, and at least 13.5v when running.
If not, then you've more fun coming!
First check is to see if you have power to the rotor, check rotor brushes, then check power is coming out of the rotor to earth.
You didn't expect this to be straightforward did you?
Awesome, I think this may lead to something. I see in the Clymer there is some testing for the alternator but do you suggest a different source since not to many people like this manual?
lol, I guess I was trying to be optimistic about the rebuild but I'm having fun with it.

I will most definitely pay for shipping if you let me borrow those. I have a macbook though. Is there a way to convert the .exe? Whatever you think is 1) easiest for you 2) compatible with my computer so I can copy and print the stuff when I get it. I have plenty of space in my gmail, I can always open a new account just for the sending purposesCoyote wrote:Sorry Bob. No can do. To make it large enough to read, then each page has to be split up. That makes the illustrations and text not match. frustrating.
There are 2 options I can offer. I could mail the CD to you and you can reimburse me for the postage. No charge for the manual or the media. Just postage
The other option we would need to get together while I email you packets of the file in pieces that can be assembled with an included tool after receiving all the packets. There are 17 in all all are 5mb in size. The reason I say we need to be together is so you can email me after receiving each one so I can send the next. You need to copy all of the to a single file. You can't leave them in your mail box because it will get full and I won't be able to send them all. Probably take 2-3 hours to do..
Are you familiar with changing file names? I ask this because the assembly tool is a .exe. It won't mail because your or my spam filter will see it as spam or a virus. So I would have to change the extension to something like.jpg or .bmp. You would have to change it back to a ,exe once you get it.
The finished file size is 80mb
Do you know what your limits are. It's possible I could email the whole thing at once -- ready to run. I also have the GT550 parts list. That one is 10mb. Both files are in PDF format.
