| RE: 65 Regulator's operational theory? |

| regulation happens by constantly turning the alternator on and off. So basically, it charges, then it doesn't charge, then it charges, then it doesn't and so on. What you have done is a test used to see if alternator output is correct, so as to rule out the alternator as a problem in the charging system. You ypassed the regulator. The original regulators have two relays in them. By creating enough voltage to activate one relay, you break the circuit to the alternator. Then when that circuit breaks and no voltage is created at the alternator, it then, by way of the relay, turns the hot circuit to the alternator back on. |
