Dudes - replaced my regulator today cause my battery was going dead and the light on the dash didn't work... Anyway I have a voltmeter on the dash and I assumed that if the charging system is working then it will jump from 12 volts up to 13 or 14 volts - however this dosn't happen. The juice holds at about 12 volts....
HOWEVER when I put the lights on or the wipers coupled with brakes and indictaors the volts just drop on the dash voltmeter - is this right??
On my ghia I notice when the lights are on at idle the lights are dim but then when I put my foot down the charge comes up - I thought this would be the same on the van - but they just remain constant.
