About a mile from my house on the way home today my generator light came on in my Fastback. There was no flicker, it was just on steady. I immediately checked my volt meter which read 12 volts. When I got home I checked the V-belt and it is fine. The volt meter was reading normal (around 14 volts @ 3000 rpm with the headlights and the radio on) earlier in the day. I quickly checked the generator and found no obviously loose wires but it was cold and dark so I put the car in the garage and will work on it tomorrow. Any idea if this is the generator or the regulator?
