Regulator

I havent tried that. Please could you tell me what to do, How to adjust the regulator? The car has only done very little mileage for the last few years (6 miles the last 18 months) but because I dont know any of the previous owners I cant say whether this has been an ongoing problem. Thank you for y...

NORTH MANCHESTER

We live in North Manchester and have been searching for a moris minor club. The nearest seem to be Accrington or Cheshire. If anyone knows of any more please can you let us know. We do intend going to both these meetings to get to know other minor owners but would also like to know if there are any ...

tested dynamo

We have now tested the dynamo and it is working OK. The reason why I was getting 1v was because the voltt meter was set at 20 as the revs increased the volt meter went to 1v. When I reset the volt meter to 200 we got a reading of 60volts as the revs increased. My next course of action is to replace ...

I have put a temporary cable from each side of the dynamo to the regulator in case of cable breakage. Still no difference. It is possible I bought a faulty dynamo but how could I ...

It is correct we are only getting 1v at fast idle. This is read from bridging the contacts on the new dynamo. I think the battery is still ok as it has held a charge for the last week. We only bought the car 1 week ago. I will check the contacts tomorrow and clean the connections and let you know. T...

Battery not charging

I have a problem with the battery losing charge. I thought maybe the dynamo brushes may be worn but they were ok. I then replaced the dynamo but still have the same problem. The battery isn't charging. The red ignition light is very slightly glowing. This glows slightly more as the revs increase. Th...
