Dynamo to Alternator - Success!

Posted By : David Boswell, 25-Mar-2004, 01:58pm

After quite a lot of time with a dodgy dynamo, I finally got fed up and put in an alternator last night.

Nice and cheap alternator (apart from the postage) from Canleys, and they took my dynamo in exchange.

Took a couple of hours, and even modified the old voltage regulator box to hold the changed wiring connections. Slightly longer fan belt needed (about 50mm longer), and a longer rear mounting bolt but that's about all.

Thanks to the TSSC Devon site for their guidelines.

I feel refreshed and ready to go for summer!
