My dad took his old generator from his H to get rebuilt at the re-wind shop. Originaly it had the generator and cut-off on it. It has good wirining so that isn't my issue. The man rebuilt the generator and installed a voltage regulator instead of a new cut-off. My dad hooked it up and was told to only hook up the batter wire to the battery teminal on the regulator. Well it doesn't charge. When you pull out the kill switch the amp gage shows discharge when you start it up the needle just makes it past the 0 mark. Do we have to by-pass the old 4 postion light switch for the new set up to work? There is a wire from the 4-way switch that used to hook up to the old cut off to change the charging from high to low. I tried hooking that up but the needle on the amp meter went completly to the left showing discharge. I also tried to ploarise the generator but momentarly touching the bat terminal on the regulator to the A termenal on the generator and that is when I showed the needle just above 0. Is there anything else I should be doing? Do I need to by pass the high low portion of the old 4 postion switch? The man told my dad ther generator was now set up for one output? I think that wtih the regulator on there you don't need the high low? any help would be great.
Thanks

the gererator is wired like this A to the post underneath the regulator, F to the feild or F on the regulator and Bat is connected to the battery wire that goes to the old 4 postion switch or ammeter as it was hooked up on the original equpment.
