Hasler said: (quoted from post at 09:15:50 06/23/09) A resistor in series with the diode will make it decay faster at the price of higher voltage across the contacts. I thought I knew how TC circuits work. How will a series resistor decrease the discharge time? On a side note, and I haven't really thought this through, but one wonders why "we" can't just go to a solid state device for the VR. It might even be possible, depending on field wiring and current, to use an Alternator regulator AS-IS at least for the VR section. I recently gutted a defective VR on my "new" Cub Cadet 102 and replaced the cutout relay with a bridge from RadShack, so that part is pretty easy
