Good evening
My first post for some time - largely due to an MBG rebuild! Recently however I’ve had an issue with the generator light:
Last week I replaced all bulbs with LEDs (excl. headlamps, which remain H4) and since then a good shove of revs are needed for the generator light to go out. I’m not sure if this is related to recent swap of lamps or not.
Once out, revs can drop to a level (above idle) and the light stays out. If the light was not already out then this level of revs would not cause the light to go out. Engine is 650cc with refurb’ alternator and voltage regulator form Ricambio some six years ago.
Separately, the horn contact is temperamental - how easy a task is it to dismantle and re-tension/ brush the contacts?
Many thanks
Steve
