Both are built like brick... houses , except if you have engine running with not battery there is a damn good change you will blow the charge part of the regulator... and maybe only the tach reads faulty. There is a serious series of tests to make to establish which one is at fault. Found this out the hard way... couple trips out after a full 'professional' service the young guy.. not well trained or decided to take a short cut.. buy cleaning checking battery terminals while engine warming up... Battery heald for 2 trips, then trim stopped working..car jumper battery held up for the rest of the day/ drifts. Did the usual charging checks, had a chat to the workshop. And referenced the full factory/ repair/ service manual. What initially thought was stator, checked out to be the regulator.. Voltage charge I now check before, no more than every 2nd trip out when engine check, fire up, nav lights done morning or day before. |
