Robert,
The generator was set up years ago to just produce a trickle charge. There is not a large demand from the generator other than topping up the battery. Probably after all these years, it's time to adjust the movable brush, maybe clean up the commutator as well. Perry

New cutoff failure
Hi all . The generator came back from the shop . There was a cut or exposed wire inside making contact occasionnaly . Installed it today with a brand new mechanical cutoff from Mac’s . The cutoff failed it’s job immediately as the points were sticking and the generator was draining the battery . Thank you Mac’s . I had headed Rob Love’s advice and ordered a diode somewhere else . Installed it ( pictured ) and it works flawlessly . Bought it on Epay for $30 US or so and it is said to work on 6/12/24 volts . The important thing is it works on my 6 V system . No drainage of the battery . A nice slow charge to the battery and a nice ample supply of current to the accessories . Life is good when a generator does it’s job ! The red wire is for the red light on the dash up front and the black goes to the battery . The light comes off immediately when the engine is started and the generator is pushing current . No faint red light , no flicker . The diode does it’s job . Life is good when a diode does it’s job . Throw out those mechanical cutoffs my friends and your lives will be much easier . Thank’s Rob Love for the advice !

No relation to seller . A minor inconvenience is you lose originality a bit . i guess originality is important but if you actualy use your Carrier year round like me , then you have to compromise a little .
