Hey Noel...heres one to kick out on the board...if you need to know if
the alternator is putting out (read charging) just take out your pocket
knife, open the blade and put it against the bearing on the back of the
alternator...if it is charging it will magnetically attract to the metal
blade. Good for a quick check if your voltmeter is not handy. Someone
needs to try it and see if it works in MV's...and report back. Fred Martin
