I was switching from a 12 volt generator to an alternator and forgot to disconnect the battery. I shorted across the voltage regulator creating a large spark, after that the starter would not work. I have taken it off and checked the wires and brushes but found nothing wrong. If anyone has an idea I would appreciate it.
Thanks Dave B.

Well shorting something at the regulator wouldn't kill the starter so you may have a fuse in the circuit somewhere. If not you'll have to check each item and connection to find what you fried. By the way, you weren't trying to polarize the alternator were you? They dont polarize, they're all negative ground.

Thanks Allan I will check the wiring next. I was trying to unbolt the voltage regulator sense the alternator is internaly regulated.
