I have some charging problems, I don’t think indicator is correct.
Anyone guess if you remove the blue wire to the indicator light, which is across from the output red white wire, you will see (+12V or ground) when things are fine. Any chance someone could put a meter on it and let me know.
What’s that extra green/white wire on the B+ post of the generator for, it is the 1of4 that dose not go to the regulator. |

| The two colored wires in the engine compartment are part of the now useless factory diagnostic system. Many folks (like me) use this wiring to run gauges. |

If you ground the blue wire, with the ignition on but engine off, the warning light will illuminate. This will also work at the generator.
