Calling All Electrical Wizards
Greetings All,
70 Bus. Stock electricals except for European taillights. Generator and VR
have not been touched since purchase of bus one year ago. They seem to be
functioning fine and the belt has the proper tension. Idle speed is set at
925 rpms.
So..........I've noticed that when I engage the turn signals my generator
light pulses in time with the flasher. The generator light is not bright.
Very, very dull glow. Can't even see it during the day. Rpms seem NOT to
affect this phenomena. The generator light will pulse/glow at idle or revs.
No other sort of load (headlights, brakelights, rear defroster) produces this
effect. I'm wondering if this might be a sign from the big VW that the VR is
on its way out. Any thoughts on this? Time to clean connections?
By the way, I don't think this has anything to do with the European
taillights (but who knows?) inasmuch as I recall having seen this before I
installed the new taillights.
Mike
