Before you attempt to adjust the regulator, first clean the points inside
the regulator. I work on a lot of regulators and find that the vast majority
of problems are dirty or oxidized points.

Hi John,
I would go through the steps to diagnose and adjust the control box
(regulator).
If it needs adjustment, make yourself a set of small 90 degree offset
screwdrivers. I used 10 penny nails, bent to shape, hammered flat and filed
to
fit the screws. You need these to get access to the adjustments w/o removing
control box from the footwell.

Since installing a rebuilt generator (uh, dynamo) on my MG TF 1250
recently, the red light on the dashboard has been staying on longer than
usual.
First I will give a brief but complete story of the car's electrics and
then describe what's happening recently. Maybe someone has an idea or
suggestion.
