I have a 1929 Hupmobile 2 brush generator(correction it is a 3 brush generator)that refuses to charge. I have checked the fuses and the brushes look good. It was charging good a year ago and then when I went to get it out last year it was not charging.
I put a test light on the cutout on the battery side and I have power. I also replaced the cutout last year thinking it was the cutout, but no change. I took the cover off the cutout and closed the points and no change. Everything looks in order as far as the brushes, armature, wiring, etc. How can I test the generator on the car?
Do I need to flash the generator, if so how on a two brush generator?
