l worked @ the Lucas service department Birminghaam
England for over 7 years ...
The w/light bulb that burnt out was caused by not
connecting the ground at the regulator , when the
engine was started the voltage out-put from the
generator went sky high in one second because the
regulator terminals stayed closed , caused by not
grounding the regulator ....
When connected correctly the regulator cotroles the
open- circuit voltage to 15.8v to 16.4v .. the cut-out
points are in parallel with the warning light and when
those points close the bulb goes OUT
