[T3] No charging but no light!


I drove the Notch last week... and I noticed just after it started the
ammeter popped into the negative, and never came out.  No generator light
came on... and it wasnt charging!  I drove it to work and when I started it
again it did it on the second try but I started it once more and it was
charging again...

So... I suspect the regulator is going... but apparently they can fail in a
mode that doent trigger an idiot light, does this mean that the light is the
idoit?
