With Analog Instrument Cluster

DESCRIPTION
A red generator charge indicator is located in the instrument cluster. This indicator glows when there is no generator output.

OPERATION
When the ignition switch contacts are closed (switch turned on), battery current flows through the charge indicator and the parallel resistor (500 ohm) to the regulator and the indicator comes on. When the generator builds up enough voltage to energize a circuit in the voltage regulator, the charge indicator goes out.
