I am having issues with the isostatic pressure capacitor in the tertiary inginition subsystem. It keeps fortuitously sending dielectric ERM signals to the wrong set of routing modules. I phoned "Auto Parts Plus" but they couldn't help me out...
This is serious now, I just put a new(er) generator, voltage regulator, checked all the fuses and check most connections on my midget. But my car won't produce any electricity, I have to recharge and recharge the battery all the time. I am stumped to what is causing this.

This thread is uncannily awesome.
Sure it's the right versions ? . I wonder if you've a mix of new generator and reg for ealier version.Originally Posted by johnnynumfiv
Just wanting to check the obviosu first
So, what changed that stopped it working and started the replacements ??
Can you get a voltmeter ?
Check the voltage across the battery when ignition off, ignition on and engine running. Post the 3 voltages here.

When the car was bought, it wasn't working. So, i've been replacing the battery and charging the battery with a charger for about 2 years now. the replacement volt reg is a lucas one that is supposedly for 1275's. The generator is from an earlier car, but i had it checked at a local shop and they said it is fine, so i put it in and it still didn't work. I'll do the volt meter thing tomorrow when i'm going to be workin on it. I'll post them for you. Also, the light in the interior that shows when the battery needs charging has never worked, and the problem is not the bulb.Originally Posted by Matra et Alpine

You need to get the model numbers off the dynamo and the regulator and I know someone who can tell me right away if they're the right match.
Also, do you know what year the wiring loom is from ? Again, there were differences. The most substantial being the change from positive to negative earth in the 60s !!!
