How to wire stock regulator?
« on: August 03, 2021, 01:01:23 AM »
Hi,
I have bought a stock regulator from ebay since I am going back to AGM (previous owner switched to lithium and therefore got a new rec/reg as well).
I can't seem to find any information on how to wire the regulator though.
I should have three wires: white, green, black. The three pins on the regulator are marked with "E", "F", and "I". One letter on each.
Which wire should go on which pin?

Thank you!

There should be some coloured tape on the lid of the reg with the colours on. If nobody chips in before i get into my garage i will look for you

Of course... I thought that was some kind of flag or some other decoration.
Well that certainly clears it up. Sometimes it's simpler than you think! Thank you so much!

Green is ground, black is PLUS and white goes to the dynamo.

So and so. We have shown that film several times in a film art house, long before Werner Herzog became well known and his films made it to the main stream cinemas.
