well, im thinking whatever this problem is, it may be something stupid as well. i did more testing this evening and am now discovering that if i jump the fld and bat terminals together, i also get the alternator to charge. at this point the gauge does the same thing it was the last time. at idle, it will show maybe 10 to 15 amps, and as i increase the throttle it will boost to maybe 25 or 30. the other nite, it wasnt showing the full 60 amps(even tho i said it was). am i putting this thing into full charge or not? what harm will i cause by adding a permanent jumper into this regulator? maybe adding a switch to cut and restart the power? what do you think
