wacky ammeter question
Has anyone ever seen an ammeter go nuts?
I have switched generators (due to another reason) but both before and after, the ammeter often goes "wacko" by that i mean it goes from full charge back to full discharge and back and forth super fast! then it levels out and acts normal, etc... any ideas?

Re: wacky ammeter question
A wire that has a bare spot and intermittantly grounds out can cause that.

Re: wacky ammeter question
Also check for loose or corroded connections in the charging circuit.

Re: wacky ammeter question
I've looked everywhere... not to say I haven't overlooked a grounded or loose connection, but could it be the ammeter itself?
