Drove the TR4 for an extended run (hours' drive) at night yesterday.
I need to aim my headlights. Although they do light up a lot of the night
(Bosch H4)
The ignition light glowed during the whole trip though :-( Not very
bright, and the ammeter did not show a discharge, but I'm a bit concerned
over it. Is it normal? I didn't have the heater or the wipers on, just
the engine and the main beams. The light dimmed a bit on low-beams, and
brightened a bit when the brake lights were on.
Is this a sign? (hopefully of something Triumph related)
Excessive resistance in the wiring?
Alternator on the way out? (I hope not!!) It's a GM conversion, 55 amp.
