I have just rewired my Dexta but I can't seem to get the charging light to come on.  The oil pressure light is fine.  It isn't a bulb issue I've swapped them over.  I have an alternator fitted.  It must be something simple but after a lot of hours looking and trying i am stuck. Any ideas?
Regards

Re: Charging Light
Everything is so simple I am beginning to suspect the alternator, it  is well over 10 years old, how can I test it?  Will the light not come on if the alternator is u/s?
