[T3] Generator Light On

[steven.cooper@optusnet.com.au]

For the past few weeks my generator light has been staying on for about 5 min 
after starting.  It doesn't seem to make any difference how fast I'm driving.  Today 
the battery was too flat to start the car, so I charged it and tried some of the tests 
from the Bentley manual.  I couldn't do the no load test as when I disconnected 
the B+(51) terminal from the regulator, the car wouldn't start.  Am I misreading the 
instructions or are they wrong.  I have two wires connected to B+, which one 
should I disconnect or do I disconnect both from the regulator and join them 
together?
The battery is fairly old, could this be contributing to the problem?
