10 volt regulator checking

Post by Dazco »

How do I in about checking the 10 volt regulator when its off the van. I have a couple of spare printed circuit ribbons in the shed and want to test the regulators on then to see if they are ok. Thanks . Daz

Put 12v in + negative and see if you get 10v out:

If you have originals the terminals are reversed, ie 12v in on right, 10v out on left.

What are the markings?
