Re: [FWDLK] Charging Problem

Be sure that the connections at the ammeter itself are solid. An ammeter is in SERIES somewhere in the circuit. so a loose connection there will cause other things to act screwy. I had a loose connection there on my '54 buick and it exhibited all kinds of weird problems that the book always said was something else.

I would check and clean all ground terminals first!

All,

Need some help. My 55 Savoy, 6 Volt Positive ground
shows discharge on the ammeter when it is running. I
followed the test guide in the manual and the initial
troubleshooting showed the regulator to be bad. I
replaced the voltage regulator, ran new wires from the
generator and it still fails to show a charge. I
tested the ammeter according to the book and it
discharges by turning on the lights etc..

When I hit the horn and leave it pushed, the quits. It
does restart. Is the horn relay bad? Could it be
something else?

Thanks,

Mike
