alternator internals
alternator stoped charging, so I bought a rebuild kit and rebuilt it, afterwards it still wasn't charging and I found it to be a wiring problem. I fixed that and it was charging again...Problem is that now with new regulator and diode pack the car charges but I have a choke light on and charge gauge is not registering. was going to put the old reg and diode pack back in but just wanted to know if this has happened to anyone before...the fuses are ok.

when they are reversed, it's possible to blow the regulator too...
