Title: Red light charging on Post by: riverhead on May 09, 2015, 10:17:15 PM Hi was just about to nip into village when the red charging light came on when I put on the wipers.
Dimly on when I put on the lights. Is it alternator or regulator and where is the regulator on the 79 spider ? Gotta drive it 100 miles Monday. Better bring a spare battery! Any suggestions? Thanks Huw Title: Re: Red light charging on Post by: tnsmttg on May 09, 2015, 10:42:31 PM Check the voltage at the battery with the engine running and a load such as lights on. Raise the engine revs and look for 12 volts and above.
