Well I did the signal lamp test last night and it was in Spec. the lamp turned on.
3. Field Relay Test
If the signal lamp is lighted with the connector in place and the engine running at a fast idle, the field relay which is located in the regulator may be faulty or there may be trouble in the alternator.
Connect the VOM to pin-2 to ground. With the engine running at a fast idle, if the VOM reading is 5volts or more the signal lamp remains lighted, the field relay is faulty and the regulator must be replaced.
This test was a fail but when I replaced the regulator with a new one it failed also. This blew my mind and I started to look elsewhere for the problem. I found a fuse blown in the fuse panel but is was for the backup light? The fuse on the bottom left of the fuse panel 10amp?
Now the lamp is on and off intermittently go figure. It is now normal I can’t seem to tie this problem to a single fail point
Replaced:
1.Alternator (was bad failed bench test someone sprayed silver paint all over it)
2.Voltage Regulator (Still not sure new one is the right one)
3.Alternator 2-pin connector (very worn and questionable pin fatigue)
4.10amp fuse (not related)
5.Voltage Regulator connector (very worn, not done yet ,on order)
6.Ignition switch (suspect intermittent, not done yet, on order)
