Started the <br>engine and the light went off for a second or 2 and then remained on <br>even at 3K rpm but it did go off when I stopped the engine.<br><br>So, I changed generators with 2 spares with light staying on and no <br>charge at the ammeter.<br><br>Some suggested changing the control box. I didnt have a spare at the <br>time so I just put the car in the back of the garage since I had 2 <br>others to drive the rest of the summer.<br><br>The plan was to get another control box via ebay or somewhere during the <br>rest of the summer driving season and see if that fixes the problem.<br><br>Well, as you might have guessed, things got in the way and I just got <br>around to working the problem again.<br><br>I just exited the garage after starting the engine for the 1st time this <br>year and everything worked fine for about a minute or so, then at 2K rpm <br>the ignition light came on and the ammeter went to a slight discharge.<br><br>But I did manage to secure a TR4A control box during the winter for 25$ <br>on ebay. I did clean it up during the winter. So, I just finished <br>installing that box and so far so good.<br><br>I guess it is a bad control box.<br><br>Does anyone on the list know of a shop that can repair the TR4 control <br>box? This is the one with the very large set of spade male connectors. I <br>would like to have a spare in the trunk (boot) just in case.<br><br>Thanks,<br><br>Bob<br><br>** <a ymailto="mailto:triumphs@autox.team.net" href="mailto:triumphs@autox.team.net">triumphs@autox.team.net</a> **<br><br>Donate: <a href="http://www.team.net/donate.html" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/donate.html</a><br>Archive: <a href="http://www.team.net/archive" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/archive</a><br>Forums: <a href="http://www.team.net/forums" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/forums</a><br>Unsubscribe/Manage: <a href="http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/triumphs/yellowtr3@yahoo.com" target="_blank">http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/triumphs/yellowtr3@yahoo.com</a><br><br><br></div> </div> </div> </div></body></html>
