[Healeys] Battery Not Charging

In general one needs to take off the smallest of skims of a commutator 
when renewing the brushes to make everything absolutely true. At some 
point you will have to grind flat a hacksaw blade and remove some 
insulating material between the copper segments. The insulation should 
be about 0,5-1mm below the surface. When renewing the phosphor bronze 
bush do not forget to soak it in oil first for 24 hrs. or heat it in an 
open small oil container "au bain marie" (ask your wife) (on second 
thoughts may be not) and let everything cool down before removing it 
from the oil.
In the past I replaced those bushes with a ball bearing, a fairly simple 
job if you have access to a lathe and know how to work it.
Did you refit your wiring correctly? Broken/dodgy wire/connector? Are 
the brushed moving freely? Do they have enough length? Your WSM will 
specify the minimum lenght.
