The Fordson Tractor Pages Forum

Hi guys .. the closest article I could find on my problem was this one

http://www.fordsontractorpages.nl/phpbb ... php?t=2323

Basically my 62 SM stopped charging, so I replaced the dynamo with the same type (22A) which cured it except the charge light only went out when the engine was about half revs, so I replaced the regulator too, which did not resolve it .. Ive tried adjusting the regulator without success ? Should I have flashed the dynamo I'm reading in that article ? what should I try next ? the tractor is positive earth

You do not say if you have replace with a new one...!
it's likely to be the generator so flash it to see.
unless you have a book on how to adjust, or you know what you are doing, do not try and adjust the regulator.
when the generator is charging it cuts out F=field and there for the light goes out...!

Ok Im back on the case with this but sadly since the forum move, the link is broken and i'm no further forward

Here's a link to a manual that explains a lot about Lucas charging systems.
