The charging system on my 2110 isn't working.I remember years ago that you had to polarize a generator by momentarily touching 2 terminals on the regulator.Anyone remember how to do that? thanks kenny

On my Harley Sportster, if you removed the battery you would have to flash the field. That involved using a jumper to momentarily connect the battery to the field terminal. I always just brushed the terminal with the wire and that worked well enough. I don't know if it works the same on these kind of generators.

Would not having my generator polarized right cause my tractor to charge for a few minutes and then stop and go to 0? Thanks Erich
