The Battery terminal on the regulator should always read voltage simply because its connected directly to the battery via and through the ammeter. It gets connected to the generators armature outout only if and when the gen puts out and closes the internal cut out relay otherwise the battery would dischharge when tracor is shut off. So, it sounds like the generators output isnt getting to the battery cause the regulator isnt working. The polarization is the likely cause and Im not sure but think some regulators which are for negative ground only will not work on pos grounds. Try polarizing the regulator and see if it then kicks in. John T in Indiana
