Kene Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Polarize generator? Polarize voltage regulator? I'm new to the 1959 Ford Thunderbird that is not charging. The dash light is on when the car is running. Any suggestions on how to get the generator to charge the battery? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul2748 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Get a multimeter and see how many volts the generator is giving out at 1500 to 2000 rpm. If less that 13.5 volts, then either the generator or regulator is bad. Shouldn't need to polarize if nothing has been replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
