Re: [T3] Generator


ok sooo...

my red light comes on dimly at first (but not as soon as i start the car, 
it's usually several minutes before the light starts to come on) then more 
and more solid, and it happens quickly(within a couple minutes) at night 
with my lights on, i haven't had the opportunity to see if it changes at 
high speed cause i don't want to get stuck on the highway.

does this mean that the brushes are bad in my generator? this is likely 
not a bad connection because of the gradual red light? is the generator 
easy to rebuild? what is involved in that? where can i find a tutorial(if 
i don't yet own a bentley, because of lack of funds)? is it completely 
lazzy and silly to just buy a new one and then rebuild this one later, or 
is that just a waste of money compared to the relative ease of rebuilding 
the one i already have?

any help for a broke ignoramous would be appreciated.....
