If you run my Troubleshooting Procedure below it will describe how to Polarize and also has a test to determine if non charging is due to a faulty Generator versus a faulty Voltage Regulator. It also has a Motor Test which can provide insight if the genny is good or not.........
My procedure is for Class A charging systems ONLY and isnt exact for Class B's
